Howdy gang!

Well, here we are at the very tail-end of the dragon year. So far the sleepy dragon is much easier to deal with than the rampaging beast he was for most of 2012. The year so far's been pretty decent... Let's see...

Liralen and I finished the first Evantide and Li novel. It's 124K, full-on fantasy-action with a good helping of romance, set in an alternate world where Magic Still Lives. If you're inclined to seek more information, there's stuff up on the website:

In addition to that, we've got the next Evantide & Li book outlined, more or less, and we have a plan of attack for the next New Amsterdam book. Okay, technically, we have a plan of attack for the next *four* New Amsterdam books. We also have a novella, a short story or two, and possibly a side novel all lined up. Oh, and there's also a new donation story on the horizon.

The next phase for the Evantide & Li book is going to be hard. I don't want to talk too much about it, as... well. I'm a superstitious cuss. But suffice to say, the second we have *good* news, so too shall you.

On a more personal note, I'm feeling better. The health seems to be working with me instead of against me. My diet's pretty limited. I can't really eat out anymore, which is sort of a knife to the social life. But I find that the cravings for donuts have finally lessened to the point that I'm not so inclined to jump out of a moving vehicle at the first sight of a pastry.

In fandom/other writing news...

Now that the book's done, I've got about two weeks off. I'm reading, I'm resting, I'm remembering the names and faces of friends I've not seen in six months. *laughs*

I'm also contemplating projects. I know I have Lessons in Living... there's also this Sherlock thing I'm toying with, a Supernatural thing, and I've got a Nagato Moresome that's about 1/2 done.

The other day a group project (Yes; involving YOU people!) occurred to me. It's sort of... Kinky Mad Libs, wherein you give me two names and words, and I give you a ficlet that should be giggle-cackle worthy.

Dunno. We'll see. Truth be told, I might spend the next two weeks sleeping. I certainly could use it, but... Eh. I figure that'll get old by day two. *grins*

Mostly I'm thinking of hosting some Word Wars, maybe working on LiL, and when I get it done and beta read, maybe hosting a Skype Party to read it. Remember those? *laughs* Wherein I used to host people, read porn, and drink heavily with y'all?

Yeah. I miss it, too.

So we'll see what happens. For now, know I'm here. I still plan on finishing all my stories. I miss you. I hope all is well with you and yours. If anything exciting's going on, do comment here! Tell me how you've been.

Much love and vacation musings,
