Wed, 16 Sep 2009 21:39:25 +0000 http://backend.userland.com/rss092 en So hey, thanks to A I finally got my hands on the October/November issue of Asimov's, which just happens to have my story "Where the Time Goes" in it. Very exciting! In other news, I didn't hit my writing goal for August -- only 12.5 hours instead of 30. ... http://www.randomjane.com/?p=212 I'm making the transition from Go! Go! Write-a-thon! back to regular old writing-in-the-morning, and I have to admit I've been a bit of a slacker -- adding up the 20- and 30-minute scraps, I've got 2 hours in for August so far, mostly because the Snooze button and I have ... http://www.randomjane.com/?p=202 An update! The project management contract that I started right around the time I posted the last entry is still going strong. I don't see any changes in the near future, which is keen because for the first time in a long while I've been able to keep up with ... http://www.randomjane.com/?p=191 Back on December 31st I declared not resolutions but my big to-do list for the first part of 2009.

But if we take "the first part of 2009" to ... http://www.randomjane.com/?p=182 Well, I was under the impression I was updating here, but it turns out it was just Twitter and Facebook. Yipes. A few quick highlights: I spent last weekend in Bradford at Eastercon. It was delightful and a good kick in the "write more!" pants, as cons usually ... http://www.randomjane.com/?p=175 Tonight I made a lamb and mixed vegetable curry using the leftover leg of lamb A roasted for dinner on Sunday (the roast was fabulous, and the lamb a lovely housewarming gift from A's mother). I also threw in: the remaining carrots and onion he roasted with it the leftover peas ... http://www.randomjane.com/?p=165 It's been about a week since A and I moved to the new place, and the list of things to do is less daunting than it was before the weekend. We're about a week away from regular internet access, so if you haven't heard from me, that would be ... http://www.randomjane.com/?p=159 Yesterday Eric sent me a link to Pride and Prejudice and Zombies, a mashup novel by Seth Grahame-Smith coming out in April. Eric wasn't sure how zombies could be wedged into P&P, but I gotta say I don't think any wedging is required -- P&P practically begs to be ... http://www.randomjane.com/?p=147 I didn't realize how much spam had integrated itself into my life until it was suddenly...gone.* The first spam of the day usually comes via my phone, since I have a quick look at my primary e-mail account when I wake up. Every morning I expect to see the NYT ... http://www.randomjane.com/?p=135 Via A, something very nifty on this excellent day. http://www.randomjane.com/?p=134
