I'm sick of looking at Gmail's compose email box.

I sent off a bunch of emails and requests for The Scorpion's Empress to reviewers who will read/review for no charge. Tumblrs, blogs and website directories have been helpful. I've also been PMing my readers on fanfiction.net to shop around for interest. I completely forgot about that Archive of our Own site. There's a waiting list of about a week before I can sign up there and post my stories...so I'm waiting. My book's release date looks like it'll be within the coming weeks.

This is much harder than writing. I'll easily write a handful of stories per year. It's the process that's draining because there are no guarantees...



Anyway, I need to finish up chapter 17 of Twisted Allure. And then write up this Dragon Age one shot (or short story--haven't decided) that I recently came up with. I have another Rise/Naoto fic I want to write as well. In between all of this, I'm working on Civil War Venus and Lysander. I need to prioritize this Dragon Age fic because the pairing's dynamic will be similar to what I'm building in this novel. And then over the weekend, I have a 16 page paper to write for my upper level writing class. I'm not all that bothered about it. I decided to write about the Sony hack in 2011 that shut down the PlayStation Network for a couple of months. It'll be fun.
