Probably it’s apt that I started this in March as the snow starts to melt and mix into the mud on the ground, because I’m going in the slush piles. That’s right — I’ve started sending out a collection of stories to agents and publishers.
And rather than the fist-pump-feeling that at least I’ve gotten this far, I just feel resigned. Like I’ve already had the months and months and months of radio silence that will ensue.
Still, it only takes one.
(Obviously, if you are a publisher or agent, I’d love to send my work to you if you’d like me to. Contact me please!)
So now what – by the end of the summer I hope to have a full Book One of The Faerie Story completed. I want to have written my Wolf Children rip-off short story. I should probably plot out Book Two of The Faerie Story while I’m at it. I don’t know what to do with my faerie story. It’s about an eleven year old, so teenagers won’t read it. I don’t know if it’s an appropriate middle-grade novel. And I think adults might be bored.
I did manage to put up the floating bookshelf Neil gave me three years ago yesterday. So, if nothing else, a book win there.

Also, congratulations for finishing Finnegan’s Wake, for having Deep Breaths Underwater published! I very much liked the little teaser they put up on the website, and am looking forward to downloading and reading the whole story soon!

Thanks! Geoff was going to tell your dad I’d finished Finnegan’s Wake, but he forgot. I’m not really sure whether it was worth my time though. At least it’s done.
As for DBU, there is epub and mobi and other so whatever device you have, there should be a place for it 🙂
