I shake my fist at the sky regarding anything involving me and artists. Truly, we were not meant to be.

The web comic meeting for this week is getting rescheduled, and I never got the pages for Steven. Nor has the artist received them back, however it seems he’s not been getting -any- mail in over a month. So, here I am, once again, thinking about turning it into something else besides a comic. So far, a novel has been suggested. I’m open to any suggestions that pop up in your brainmeats, as well. :) Never fear, I will still post the serial fiction bits that I’ve finished. Speaking of which, the next chapter should be up shortly after this hits your mailbox or your Friends List or both.

I’m reading up on The Glass Crown, to bring that world back into focus for me. It’s going to take quite a bit for me not to jump into editing mode; I’m already wanting to fix everything. I have to be okay with this being the first draft, and just write. Write write write. And then, write.

Barnes & Noble has classified The Remembrance as Young Adult, though Borders insists that it’s Mystery/Thriller/Horror/Espionage. I knew that the book straddled genres, but that’s getting a wee bit ridiculous. I’m planning on finishing out The Glass Crown in the same very-little-swearing no-sex style that The Remembrance has. Both Steven and Adam’s Name will have some more adult themes in them. I doubt anyone will be adding /Romance to any of the genre listings, though.

I wonder if an Apprentice to the Eldest showing up in the prologue of The Glass Crown is cheaty, because there was no mention of him in the prologue of The Remembrance. I’m definitely going to have to think about his purpose in the prologue, and if another position in the city might be more appropriate than just tacking him on to someone who had the knowledge that he will need to start out with. /vague

Oh, if you’d like to be an Alpha/Beta reader for The Glass Crown, and you aren’t already, feel free to contact me. I’ve still got room for a few more.
