WriteAThon 8 months ago

After much pondering and back-and-forthing, I’ve decided to try this again for the fourth year. I am depressed at my inability to find an agent for 2006’s Infectious Beauty, not to mention how I get stuck every time I try to rewrite 2007’s Strangely Carved Forms, but hey, nothing succeeds like frustration. Or something.

I’ve made plans to attend the big WriteAThon on Nov 15, and if any other 43Ters are going, please send me a note.

Also, if you feel so inclined, stop by my donation page and drop a mark, a yen, a buck or a pound in the bin.
