On the road again; guess it's time to get on the road again...

Well, here I am updating again to say that I'm leaving. This is becoming something of a habit. (I know exactly why. I didn't travel much for like, four years, so this year has become a whirlwind of going everywhere and seeing everything and trying to do it all without losing my grip on things like deadlines and word counts and TV schedules. It'll settle down soon enough. But right now, it seems like I only update this blog when I'm about to hit the ground running.)

And what a run it's going to be! I'm Guest of Honor at Norwescon next weekend, and will be spending the next week in Seattle rehearsing, writing up, and getting ready. This is a working trip, not a pleasure trip, so if I don't reach out to you going "hey let's hang," please don't take it personally; I need to get my balance before I have to be awesome for a paying audience. But I promise lots of awesome on the other end, even if I'll be wracked with guilt over leaving my cats for this long.

(Alice and Thomas continue well, and exceedingly fluffy. Lilly is getting a bad case of the Olds, and is not doing as great, but she endures, transitioning into that stage of life known as "fueled by hate" among Siamese lovers everywhere.)

I have not been seriously ill since leaving my day job, even though I have seriously exhausted myself several times. I'm not saying that correlation is causation in this case, but I think I can make a good case for the two being connected. Hooray for being out of the plague pit!

More to come.

Eee. I am excited, because Norwescon is my local con and I shall be there.

May I ask, do you have a signing scheduled, or is it okay to come up and ask you after a panel? I would dearly like to get my copy of Letters to the Pumpkin King signed. (I would, of course, have pen with me and notation for spelling of name and such, because I figure, hopefully, someday I'll be in that position -- hey, a girl can dream! ;) -- and I would prefer people to make things more convenient for me.) Even though I'm likely to be terribly shy and squeaky.

I'm pretty sure I did this? I hope I did this. I hope the con was amazing for you. <3

You did! Thank you so much. I was very happy to get my book signed, but my partner Morgan was possibly even more happy, as they were not able to attend the con because of work/health issues. I was the one who went on about tattoo plans. :D
