I found out they'd cancelled Journeyman the day after I said I loved it here.

I'm cursed. Well and truly cursed. In fact, if there's any show you'd like me to curse by saying I like it here, then suggest it in the comments. Sigh.

In other news, I ate too much for Christmas dinner and received a t-shirt with a picture of a caffeine molecule on it, with the comment, "Because you're a junkie, and the world should know it." Mmmm, caffeine.

1. I love Journeyman, and not just because the lead character's wife is named after me. Mind you, that doesn't hurt.
2. At some point I should have a linky linky to tell you where you can get my story from Torquere. I keep going out and clicking refresh at Torquere Books.
3. Someone should buy my new story, because it rocks.

Norman Mailer has posthumously won this year's Bad Sex Award.

The late Norman Mailer needed no writing advice from the likes of me. That said, if anyone wants sex writing advice, the short version would be, "Get yourself a copy of Susie Bright's How to Write a Dirty Story."

I admit it. I love the Bad Sex awards. Love, love, love, and if I ever win I promise here and now to show up!

For those of you who don't know, the Bad Sex award is intended "to draw attention to the crude, tasteless, often perfunctory use of redundant passages of sexual description in the modern novel, and to discourage it." Dammit, they don't offer it for smut, so I don't qualify! *stamps feet*

Thank you so much for the tasty nibbles I'm about to consume. Thank you even more that I didn't have to cook them myself.

Could you please pass the booze?

Love,
Kate

Because he's such a hottie in Lyda Morehouse's books. I'm just sayin'.

Anyway, it was clearly Morningstar who tempted me to participate in Scalzi's LOLCreashun thread. My entry?

I received my Torquere contract today. I still don't have any information on when my story will be available. But trust me, y'all'll be the first to know!
