It just keeps getting better and better

Ah yes, the joys of summertime.

Shame I don't get to share them.

I've been writing non-stop for a few days now. Finding myself in over my head (what else is new?) I've been scramblingto get all of my various projects up to date. The good news is that I'm now 18k into Requiem!

Yay!

The bad news is that I might have to have 80k done in ten days.

Boo!

A word of advice: if you ever enter a best first line contest, make sure you have more than 500 of those lines written. I'm so stupid. If you want to check out the progress of the contest, go to this link . Mine would be the one that mentions Mozart.

*sigh*

In other news, Asphodel is progressing swimmingly. Edits are speeding by, the release date is getting nearer, and I have a brand spanking new book trailer out. You can check it out at the bottom of this page. As for the post-apocalyptic vampire novel....well.....

I think the vampires blew up when the asteroid hit. I have hopes of resurrecting them just as soon as I can spell my own name.

Oh and thanks for all of the suggestions for music for my wake. I particularly enjoyed the one where "Losing my Religion" plays as I rise from the coffin and yell at the priest my predominately Catholic family brings to bless my sinner's carcass. Very nice. Although I must admit that "Sex on Wheels" by My Life With The Thrill Kill Cult might actually be a lot more fun.

Necrophilia, anyone?

At any rate, this is just a driveby with updates. I really need to try and get 5k more written tonight. I'll be back by tomorrow. I think it's time for an Asphodel excerpt.
