How does one "roll" a blog?
May. 22nd, 2011 01:05 pmI've recently added a few more things to my links list on the left.
The reason for this is a project started by some of the good people at AW, the purpose of which is to help promote one another in our various stages of publication.
We've also talked about guest blogging on each others' sites, so you might see something from one of them here soon, or I might link to a guest post of mine elsewhere. Stay tuned.
In the meantime, here are some recent tidbits on the blogging front:
Exploring Horror with Luke Walker--guest post on Fiona Dodwell's blog
Opening Chapter of 'SET--a novel excerpt from Luke Walker
Rock and Roll is Dead Again--announcement from Jenna Pitman (
rejectedrefuse) about the new anthology from Blood Bound Books, including her story, "The Language of Bones"
And what am I up to? Well, let's see...
"Lucid" is creeping up on the 50k mark, which is exciting, but it's also starting to bog down which is not. I keep telling myself it's okay, it's just the first draft, I can fix it later, but EURGH!
"Sinless" seems to be occupying the most space in my brain lately. I'm focusing more on plot than word count with this one, at least so far, but I like the way the language is unfolding. I think I have a good monster here.
"The Time Ghost" is at a dead stop. Again. I'm about ready to trunk it and move on. But not quite.
"The Carrion Girl" has been put away "temporarily" owing to my need to remove a character and still somehow work it up to a decent word count.
Last book read: Roses and Bones, a collection of three previously published works by Francesca Lia Block. This puts my Books Read This Year count up to 25.
