Between posts

which I'd love to say is because I've been wildly busy. I suppose I have been, come to think of it.
Looks like I just acquired me an Orson Scott Card book over at [profile] livelongnmarry. All in a good cause and I'll end up donating it to something else eventually. I loved the whole auction idea - it's been a lot of fun seeing what people could come up with. Looks like it cleared $10k this morning and will be higher by the time everything is done rolling in. Huzzah! :-D
Apart from that -
Finished a draft of a story on Sunday. Yay!
Met with the new owner of Amazon Books and things look promising. More on that when there's something specific to say.
Started filling out paperwork and getting slightly organized to send my papers off to the University of Northern Illinois. This is an exciting new development - I'm being collected! And archived. And available for research, once I get stuff to them and they get it cataloged. I'll provide links and such when we get things a bit further along.

Off to work now. Exciting days of 8 hour long meetings this week. Yippee.

Sounds like a lot of good things are coming your way, Catherine. Nice to hear. :) I bid on a filled moleskin notebook over at livelongmarry and, er, apparently won! lol!

Filled with moleskins or something less disturbing? Congrats!:-)

Ooo, I hope something a little less disturbing. But seriously I was told I could have anything I wanted, but I told her to surprise me and let her imagination run riot. I want something that will be unique. So, we'll see what she comes up with. It's all rather exiting. :)

I think I might bid on other stuff too. And you? Orson Scott Card? *wink*
