Updates (I know, scary, huh?)
It’s been a while since I updated here, hasn’t it? I’ve been doing some posting on LiveJournal, where my account is katherinewrites.
Mostly, I’ve been writing like a fiend. I finished Verdant, though I’m still going over it before I send it over to Carady and Denise. I’ve done a round of revisions and a round of edits on Amaranth. I’m about a page and a half into Ash. I’m going to try to get Verdant to Denise and Carady by the end of this week at the latest, so that will be one less thing to worry about while D. Marie and I are rushing to get through in time for Dragon*Con in two weeks.
The much lauded then cursed iBook G4 gave up the ghost completely while D. Marie and I were moving into our new duplex. Somehow I’m completely not shocked. My tech guy says it’s not worth replacing it at this point and I should consider getting a new one. The downside is that’s going to be about $2000 to get what I want/need, including Applecare. I’m $120 of the way there, thanks to a $50 donation from one of my best friends, Dirjanka. There’s still a long way ($1880) to go there, though, so I’m asking (begging) for donations to help me along on the way. More information can be found here:

And that’s about it for me. Ciao!

Hi,
please call me John. I feel great reading your blog. Of course, I am also struggling writer, with my mauuscript lying idle in all rubbish bins of the publishers, still rotting maybe.
I am not writing a novel that basically centres around a twenty-something authour, someone who has been through, and is still weathering all the treacherous journey of finding a publisher. And I want to write something deep about a struggling writer may think deep inside during all these years of refusal, self-denial, grievance and arrogance. I hope you may give me a few insights about the psychology of such character.
A million thanks! Let all writers unite!
