Round here, she's always on my mind. Round here, hey man...

...I got lots of time.

I have now survived Disneyland, the SFWA reading series, and a really nasty cold. Hooray! So let's have some accounting, because accounting is fun and necessary and means I remember where I'm going to be when.

This is the current shape of my 2012/2013, with travel dates and everything. Beautiful travel dates. Hope to see you sometime in the months to come.

No fixed deadline/being written/unsold:

Very little movement on the "being written" list this time, quite a lot of movement on the appearances, as 2013 starts to come more clearly into focus. Lots to do, and never enough time to do it in.

I need a nap.

Thank you for the accounting, Seanan. All those stories and potential stories, so cheering. "You're like Jerry Lewis, you give me hope to carry on."

By the way, you're getting new comments on your "Things I will not do to my characters. Ever." post because Skepchick picked it up in today's Quickies post. Let's see if I can get this to work... Here. Looks like you've got some new fans.

Good to know!

For some reason the image that comes to mind is the bit from Girl Genius with a dragon whopping bad guys with a massive sack of treasure saying "Hey, I said rejoice!"

I like these posts.

Do you sleep? :-)

Not really.

:will wave wildly at Windycon and hopes you can forgive that if it's between you and Amy McNally fiddle wins:

( At one convention, she watched me draw and commented on how much she enjoyed watching magic being made. I am fond of you, and I adore all of your work, but I might have to love her best for that. ;) Years later, I still feel good remembering. )

I always forgive people choosing Amy over me.

*flaily Kermit arms* yay Windycon! I'm wearing my Dr Abbey cosplay on Saturday.

Also, "candy corn M&Ms" are nearly as vile as "candy corn" oreos. IN both cases it's a case of "I like candy corn. I like this thing. This terrifying hybrid tastes like neither"

I am excited to see it!

[ebenbrooks.livejournal.com]

Um, wait a sec ... are you not going to be at GeekFest this year? :( I was really looking forward to seeing you there again.

[seanan-mcguire.livejournal.com]

Not yet firmed up. Trying.

[ebenbrooks.livejournal.com]

Okay. :) I'm keeping my fingers crossed.

Still not announcing cons in 2014?
Please says we will see you in London for Loncon3?

[seanan-mcguire.livejournal.com]

I'll be announcing 2014 officially in the next few weeks, but I have a Loncon3 membership, so I'd better be there!
