...buy Australian honey because Steve Irwin's face was on the packaging. (okay that was only half the reason. Honey is one of those things that taste different with different flowers and I've never had it from Oz before)

...buy 20$ in heirloom tomatoes from Wal-Mart (okay only four tomatoes and one cubinelle pepper and apparently Wally heard we all want to garden this year to save money and totally jacked the price skyhigh on sad looking plants. Too bad the local nurseries have boring tomatoes. Will drive to Athens to Lowes next)


...buy another 40$ worth of plants because I had a buy 40$ get 20$ off from michigan bulb (and hey they're all tropical too so I have all the fun of moving giant patio containers around...exactly WHERE these containers are going is also a mystery)

...buy a 6 piece perfumed oil sampler from Black Phoenix Alchemy Lab like I had been wanting to do for so long


...write Saiyuki porn for [livejournal.com profile] springkink instead of working on my final for tomorrow

nope I didn't do any of these things, no sir.

I don't really have any thoughts just now. I said I was going to start with the morning papers today ala [livejournal.com profile] masqthephlsphr but then slept to 10 AM 0_0! (okay I did go to bed at 2 but still)

I did manage to write 3,043 words of new original fiction over the last week. Mostly that was all me adding to existing stories, cleaning them up but some of it was work on my werewolf YA novel (a former nano) which had run out of chapters and I needed something new for my writers group in two weeks. I'm actually pretty happy with them.

I did go looking for possible markets for existing short stories. I'm still scowling that most of the paying markets on Ralan.com STILL want snail mail submissions. THis is why I dropped out 10 years ago. Genre short stories (barring romance) pay very little. It wasn't worth the postage. You'd think a decade down the line this would have changed. Sigh.

I did find two markets for a longish vampire erotica. It needed overhauled in the worst way (It also being nearly a decade old). It might be popping up on my original fiction filter for those who read on that.

I am still obsessessing over the story i sent to circlet. I might send a query about it. One editor wanted it so bad she said she would buy it even in reprint but she ended up not the editor of this anthology. I never heard that they even got it (new rule, online submission friendly sites need autorepliers) and it's been a month. I need to go look at their reading times. I know places hate the didja get it query but a month after sending a story they seemed to really want makes me way more nervous than it should.

okay I lied. I had thoughts.

So speaking of which I need a beta for several [livejournal.com profile] springkink projects since once again I managed to pick most of my usual beta's prompts (because we only have one brain between us which is probably why we're both so damn weird)


SOOOOO would anyone like to beta one or more of the following (keeping in mind the title of this project, the min. rating would be an R and for the most part these will be NC-17 and include kinks)

Star Trek (OS) - Spock/Uhura

Ghostbusters - Egon/Janine


Fullmetal Alchemist - Ed/Win (1) Maes/Roy/Riza(2)

thanks in advance


Oh I was busy cleaning up the icon folder getting all my FMA ones into character/pairing folders so it's less cluttered to look at. You had to have 3 icons to rate a folder. WInry didn't rate...Kimbley did (I have 16). I'm sure that says something about me
