Oh, hi!

[blamebrampton]

So in a very brief recap, I was made redundant and sent off with enough money to not work for a while, so I've taken July off. I might take August off, too, I'm going to play it by ear. After working like a maniac and stressing myself into a pretzel for years, I am very much enjoying not working and have instead been gardening, making things, learning to play the mandolin and writing my own stories. And realising how stressed I had been. You'll not be surprised to learn I seem to no longer have a stomach ulcer. Also, totally failing to be a good communicator. Emma, I will get those things to you! Oceaxe, I'm crap and keep failing to get back to you. Pretty much everyone, sorry!

All cats are still alive, the garden is coming along nicely: tomorrow I plant late potatoes! I keep meaning to write about politics or world events, but the short version is 'Oh, for fuck's sake…', so let's just say instead that I went to the dog park with doggy friends on the weekend and a pug climbed into my lap, as did a basset hound/laborador cross and I met a tiny tiny French bulldog puppy. Good day.

Which brings me to a poll!

It's only a terrible option if you look at it halfway rationally (and I very grudgingly must concede the point).

For one of your fangirls, though, it's the only one, especially now that Gervase is no longer playing! :-)

Whatever happens for you now, best of luck!

Ah, but you see if I stick to my plan I can send you an actual book in proofs by then as I will need some volunteer readers to tell me what needs cutting and which chapter I forgot to write (I seriously do that far too often. Happily, I usually notice at some point!) Admittedly it won't be H/D, but at least one of the three has a gay lead and some serious URST.

Well ... I don't usually read original fiction, but I trust you as a writer, so if you ever want to share, feel free.:-) I'll be looking forward to it.

(Now if someone would only give me a swift kick up the butt so I can get started on my hd_pet_fair fic ...)
