This is pretty terrible. I've been writing posts in my head for months but never actually typing them in, and now I'm here to promote a book with a story of mine in it, which seems very crass and inconsiderate. However, I think some of you might be interested.

Here is what I posted on Patreon just now:

Okay, Her Magical Pet is live on Amazon! It’s a Kindle Unlimited book and should also be available as an Amazon paperback, though I’m not sure when. I’ll put up another post when I know. Here’s the link. I really just want to curl up with all the other stories, but I have a bunch of stuff to do first. They sound great, though, and I know some of the writers and their work.

 

My story is a novelette set in Liavek whose protagonist is Dri, the protagonist of the short story “Cousins” that was published in 2007 in Sharyn November’s anthology Firebirds Rising. In addition to a romance, it contains a cat and a theatrical produxrion.

 

Her Magical Pet

 

While I’m here, here is the link for the companion anthology, which also has some great writers in it:

 

His Magical Pet

 

All of the proceeds from both anthologies go to Outright Action International.

Posts in your head, and an entire novelette. I might suppose that the novelette counts for something.

You're welcome!

I have found that "I'm not doing anything" sometimes means "cooking and keeping house for six" because, well, that's expected, and expected doesn't count.

Only, well, yes, yes it does. Even if one's brain seems disinclined to take any notice.

I would like to write one or two more stories about these characters and put them together with "Cousins" in a book, but we'll just have to see how that goes.

For the record, I would enjoy that.

I think a lot of people have been composing posts and not making them (2020 life is like that), but it's nice to see you surface when you can!

I will be 100% honest with you, I have four categories of posts: Mental posts I write, but don't make; actual posts I write, but make private for some reason or another (those ones are too whiny, or too much about terrible things I don't want to inflict on everyone); actual posts I write and then delete for some reason or another (either the same as the prior category or sometimes I let them sit too long and delete them by accident if I close the browser); and the ones that make it onto my Dreamwidth.

So, as you can see, I can't lack understanding of anyone for mentally composing posts and not making them! This is just such a weird year.

As [personal profile] jenett said, "goal I didn't know I had." She's a delightful person, as are you! I'm so excited for this anthology. I ordered the paperback to give it pride of place on one of my many, many bookcases.

Yay more Liavek! (And crap! for not knowing about Firebirds. Must track that down... first?)

And, well... sometimes Stuff Happens; there's no shame in getting overloaded and mentally stymied. Ghu knows I've been behind in posting...

Oh, I remember you talking about this and wanting to read it! That "a shot of concentrated joy" is a great description, too.
