(no subject)

One thing I did not want to grow up to be was the Midwestern lady who thought that eating at bland buffets was a good idea. I prided myself on my adventurous nature in the realm of culinary endeavor.

And then, I got reflux disease. This weekend, while shopping and socializing, a friend took us to a really good Indian restaurant. Being the considerate friend she is, she asked if I'd be okay. I assured her, I'd be able to find things to eat.

It was a very spicy buffet. Apparently, my sensitivity to whatever it is that triggers my heartburn in Mexican, Indian, and Thai foods was present in full force. It's going to be a two day, possibly more heartburn bender. Yes, I won't do that again.

I am that Midwestern woman. It's time to start carrying covered dishes in my purse for emergencies.

Writing? I spent yesterday in the car. I got nothin' but Christmas presents. We'll change that tonight.

A Most Improper Magick

You know I would never lead you astray about a new author, right? My track record hasn't been too bad, right?

What you really want right now, just in time for the holidays, is an ARC of the new book A Most Improper Magick.

Well, let's be honest. I really want an ARC, which is why I'm telling you about it. However, you should visit Stephanie, find out more about Kat and her book, and think about doing the same.

If you like Austen-like books. No, there are no zombies. Nothing is better with zombies. There, I've said. it.

Trollgress

Why yes, the first four chapters are done to my satisfaction. In their glorious entirety. Which is not to say I won't let y'all help me make them better.

Features of interest?
--Frost trolls remain angsty. They pose like models in Vogue
--Hild gets her first POV scene
--I've started every single intertwining plot thread

Tomorrow I'll return to writing through the threads. I've decided not to bake the Widow. I know it's classic, but classic sometimes is code for cliche. Her ending should be scarier. And costly.

Hope your words are flowing.
