...Pepper's chapter of the BadWrong fic up at FFN.

Am I the only one who does that and then obsessively refreshes her stats page?

And I've now improved my summary. Never would I ever put "I suck at summaries" in the actual summary, but I do, and I know it.

And this is why I dread marketing the not!kkbb/im novelthing. It's hard enough for me to summarize a short story. A whole novel? OMG. There's a book out on pitches that got published that I really need to pick up sometime soon so I can get some sort of vague idea what's expected...

I really should start the next thing. That WotF deadline is going to sneak up on me really fast if I don't watch it.

Glad you posted it!

I have been known to refresh upon occasion [g]

I suck at summaries, too, but I can't wait until I'm to the point where I can actually start writing one for my novelthing. I don't think I'm ever going to get done with editing the first half. Ever. L-(

And yeah, don't ever put "I suck at summaries" in the actual summary. I usually won't even read a story with that in there. lol.

I should start looking at queries to see what all is entailed by writing one. Because the thing isn't going to go through any major changes anymore (unless someone finds something egregiously wrong with it), so I could start the process...

I am so sorry to barge in with an OT comment. But can you call me about LTUE tomorrow? I've left my number for you in an anonymous and therefore screened comment :)

I'm not good at summaries either. Do you remember the name of the book?! =)

I can't find it right now, but I'm going to a Con this weekend and will make inquiries. :)
