My priorities: slightly flawed

[blamebrampton]

Good news: I have FABULOUS hair, with really, really red stripes poking out from the dark black on three levels. And I discovered that Martin Millar has written a sequel to Lonely Werewolf Girl, called Curse of the Wolf Girl, which is just as idiosyncratically brilliant as everything else he has ever written. And because I have the Surprise!Kindle, I could order it and read it immediately, which I did!

Bad news: Which means I did not finish Fathers this weekend, missing the June 5 festivities.

Good news: But I do have 10K off with the betas and 1.6 of the final 3 scenes written! It will be done! I will be able to move on!

Bad news: So much to do once I finish it, aiya!

Good news: Seriously, the hair is amazing and worth four hours effort ;-) It has cheered me up enormously after three and a half weeks having to wear the same boots thanks to the stupid new orthotics (NB, size 41 boots, not size 37, to fit the orthotics in. I feel as though I am wearing clown shoes!) Strangely, I wore the same boots for months or even years in my teens and twenties without minding. Those days are gone ...

Just saw that you posted (smiling so big that face hurts!)
Now sad news, back in May you waxed poetic about "Rivers of London", but Amazon US doesn't offer for Kindle and I want desperately to read it! May have to cave and find a paper copy!

Bollocks! And how weird! I bought a Kindle copy from amazon.com because I was desperate for a re-read and had loaned out my copy -- the licensing must be different country to country. It's a bit ridiculous given that it just tends to cost sales rather than protect rights.
