Storylines

Feeling slightly better today, since moonshadowed did the bills last night. I'm still going to lose the cash I had sitting paypal to the brake repair, but money isn't as tight right now as it has been in previous weeks.

Since once again Captive of the Red Vixen is going to be my big seller this month ("Big Seller" in this case meaning six copies) I suppose the logical thing to support my sales would be to write a sequel. I've got an inkling for a plot involving Rolas' sister coming to Earth as part of her Grand Tour as she regains her self-confidence, but it'll probably be a $0.99 short rather than a full novel like CotRV, unless the plot seriously takes off. Tentative title will probably be In the Wake of the Red Vixen/The Red Vixen's Wake.

First though, finish repairing Triumvirate so I can re-publish it, and perhaps put out feelers to Meg to see if she'd be willing to do the cover art for Wake so I can keep some continuity with CotRV.

Unless somebody has a better suggestion that is? :)

Quote of the day

Gacked from elfs

I can't imagine how scandalized those critics who were relieved to have something that was mild enough to not excite their kids would've been if they'd stopped for a second and realized what was actually going on. The very first rule of Scooby-Doo, the single premise that sits at the heart of their adventures, is that the world is full of grown-ups who lie to kids, and that it's up to those kids to figure out what those lies are and call them on it, even if there are other adults who believe those lies with every fiber of their being. And the way that you win isn't through supernatural powers, or even through fighting. The way that you win is by doing the most dangerous thing that any person being lied to by someone in power can do: You think.
