Another 500 or so words on the new Dancy story today. It seems to have passed into fit of Dunsanian fantasy, which is rather new to me. Tonight Bill Schafer (Subterranean Press) wanted to know why I was wasting my time with a short story, when I have a novel to write. That's a good question. I'd hoped to finish it this weekend — the short story, not the novel — but that's beginning to seem unlikely. Tuesday, maybe. Then, I promise, I'll get back to Low Red Moon . . . just as soon as I finish editing Part 2 of Bast: Eternity Game for Vertigo.
Dame Darcy has signed the signature sheets for In the Garden of Poisonous Flowers and they've gone back to the publisher, so we'll probably have the book finished in time for World Horror, along with the chapbook, "On the Road to Jefferson."
The weather was much warmer today. My feet didn't get cold.
I'm going to be giving away some of the "Salammbô" t-shirts to mark the website's 50,000th hit (any day now) and the release of the Meisha Merlin trade paperback of Tales of Pain and Wonder, but first I have to devise a fiendishly clever contest or a deadly deed or some such. Stay tuned.
