Monday unfuckery roundup

I have survived the weekend and its houseguests-of-little-warning. The house was clean when they arrived, and is still mainly clean, except for the shriveled husks of Disney princess stickers littering my living room, and a sink full of dishes. If I tidy the kitchen today and start the guest-linen laundry, this week will be off to a good start. Which is handy, because in just under two weeks I'm hosting a crit group meeting here, so I need to keep entropy under control.

I didn't get up particularly early today, but I did walk the dog first thing, fulfilling both my half-hour exercise requirement and my decent-pet-keeper requirement. I'm waiting on another shipping address before I can make a post office run, so I am not unvirtuous in that regard.

Now I will make coffee (at home, instead of buying more delicious coffee elsewhere) and open up my various writing projects. I need to make progress on a short story due in the middle of March, write two missing scenes for Dreams, and work on getting more roller derby into the proposal for The Ashen Throne. I'd also like to get the beginning of Prayers To Broken Stone whipped into proposal shape as well.

Whee!

Books gone wild

I would apologize for spamming LJ, but LJ could use a little more content these days. Anyway...

I expect Kingdoms to start hitting shelves between tomorrow and next Tuesday. Bookscan tells me that copies have already been sold. If anyone spots a copy in the wild, pictures would be greatly appreciated.

Also, I'm having another contest for a free copy over on Twitter, if you would like to win such a thing.
