I only have one comment...

About the Paris Hilton situation.

No, Paris. You are not a special snowflake.

That is all.

In other news, I'm still hunting the next plot bunny. *holds out a carrot while hiding a net behind my back* Heeeeerrre, bunny, bunny, bunny...

I have a plan!

Whether that's better than a "way," I don't know. However, in no particular order:

• Merc&theSnake: Going to Fantasy & Science Fiction next. They have a shockingly quick turnaround time. After that, maybe Strange Horizons. Will cross that bridge if it comes.
  
• CatFeet: Contingent upon it being salvagable, it's going to Weird Tales. Right now my Writing Buddy, Dan Willis, and Bob Defendi have it and are hopefully tearing into it.
  
• WerewolfFic: Probably sending that one to Writers of the Future, unless I can get something else hammered out before the deadline.

What's next on my plate? I have no idea. None of my prompts are really firing my cylinders right now. Hopefully I'll be able to meet with snarking_boojum on Monday, he'll give me back the WerewolfFic and the CatFeet story, and I'll at least have something to edit. Merc&theSnake is formatted and ready to go, at least.

I really like a "cats as aliens" idea, because cats are freaky little creatures. I realize that it's been done to death, but what if there was a cat that just wasn't very good at being a cat? *eyes the Tober-Kitty, who is misshapen and rather graceless and is just...stranger than most cats* And thus people began getting suspicious?

I haven't heard back from Fox Cutter on any edits for the DragonFic yet, either, so that'll be something I'll have to jump on as soon as he gets back to me.

Hm. Looks like I'll be wearing my Editor Hat rather than my Writer Hat for the forseeable future. Yayness.

But everything I consider "complete" is either out there in the Wild Blue Slush Pile or headed that way ASAP. Cuz, you can't get published if you don't send the crap out. Writing is 20% inspiration, 40% perspiration, and 40% plain old gumption...ation. Yeah.
