[Writing Post] Geekinomicon and Deadlines
Annoucement (Especially my OKC folk!):
GEEKINOMICON!, September 2-4, 2016 – I will be a panelist – and have a table in their Small Press area. One of the panels is already on the schedule – stuff is always being added. But there will be so much more to do than autographs and buying stuff. I know this because 1) I know how hard Devin Pike is working on that; and 2) I’m not a celebrity draw, and I’m there! Come support this, please? Cox Convention Center!
Now… Deadlines. Yeah, I’m going to blow that arbitary YA deadline. Sorry, Larry, you really tried. I really tried (not giving up YET) but, dude, it’s so not going to happen. Between day job stress and crap and just normal life stress and crap… stress and crap happened which has an effect on the writing. There’s been family trips and conventions (and now new conventions) and this is the “busy” time of the year.
I am writing. Regularly. I didn’t spew all those things out as excuses. They are things that happened that delayed what I’m working on. But I am currently working on three projects (because I’m a masochist and details for one ongoing project keeps popping up when I SHOULD be working on ONE THING) – but the priority is the YA novel – but there’s an anthology that I REALLY, REALLY want to be part of.
So I’m WORKING. I’m moving forward (which was the goal for this year). I’m not going to make the deadline. ASAP. Promise. Mostly because I want stuff off my plate and elsewhere.
ONWARD!
