Junior usually is an early riser and spares me the chore of waking him up for school every morning. Thank God. Until this morning, I went 17 years without waking up my son and witnessing a tent pole.
Shudder.
This week, I have been deliberately disobeyed, outlined four story ideas, and plan to write a novella for a company that takes unsolicited manuscripts. I'm out of soda, the coffee isn't kicking in, and I've got Dude in the front room, finishing his science project that we thought was due in March but it's truly due tomorrow. Thank God for my husband's OCD record keeping on his snake clutches. I'll never tease him about studying all his charts and projections ever again.
This breeding season portends great things for our ball pythons. We have more visual morphs than ever before, and we are counting on our het for piebalds to produce another beautiful piebald like they did last year. Nobody ever gets tired of ball python piebalds! There is actually a revenue potential!
I had to tease the hub the other night...his thought processes are either on one set of balls or the other.
In other news, Ana Varza got sick and tired of not being published, and just wants to be read. You can find her novel, Olympus, on either Demonoid or Mininova. Mininova doesn't require an account and the novel can be found by doing a simple search for "Ana Varza Olympus." I've read worse. Actually, I've read much worse. It's in pdf format and it's formatted nicely. It's definitely not a waste of time. Fantasy with a few sci-fi elements.
I think it's pretty gutsy. I hope she gets noticed. If you don't want to do the Mininova or Demonoid route, she says she welcomes e-mail and probably would e-mail you a copy. Actually, knowing the desperation of starving authors, I can bet she'd send it out. She can be reached at ana.varza@yahoo.com.
