I have to admit I've been in a bit of a creative funk since I finished writing Two Vines. I have a bunch of ideas in my head, including some world building in that universe that I want to do, but it's been hard to get useful words down on paper.
I did manage to unearth An Old Acquaintance from the archives and clean it up for publication here, but to be honest it's not my best work (as the ratings correctly show, I think). I also wrote something for Mat Twassel's flash-fiction event, which I think will get published before the end of the year.
All of that did help shake some of the winter blues, though. Over the last few days I've started writing a new novel(la?) that's sort of vaguely winter-holiday themed, although there's pretty much no chance it'll be done before the end of the year. If you liked Careful What You Wish For, I hope you'll like this one as well. I don't expect to start posting chapters until I'm well into it, though, so look for that probably in the new year, depending on how much writing I'm able to get done while ostensibly "working" these next few weeks.
