I spent a lovely weekend in Sausalito with friends. We relaxed, we ate, we shopped. I reviewed the galley proofs for Brute. Here’s the view I had as I was sitting in a cafe with the galleys: Yeah, well, that’s hard to beat, isn’t it? I’ve traveled a fair amount, but I believe that San …
My NaNoing is going very well–I just passed 31k last night. I’ve been trying to get ahead because today I’m off for a mental health weekend with some friends. I often hit a sort of slump in a novel at about this point, but that hasn’t happened yet with this one. Chris and Dylan are keeping …
Now that the election is over and we can take a few deep breaths, I thought you might enjoy this note my younger daughter (AKA the Melodrama Queen) left on my pillow a couple weeks ago. I’ve erased her name to protect the not-so-innocent. The back of the page lists her favorite foods, states that …
The cover for my novella Speechless has made it to Round 6 of the Rainbow Awards cover contest. Only 25 covers left and so many of them are gorgeous! I think I’ve mentioned it before, but the fabulously talented Anne Cain did the Speechless cover.Please vote here: http://elisa-rolle.livejournal.com/1777947.html
Thanks to Random.org we have a winner! Congratulations to warpedminded for winning the e-cop-y of Good Bones, and thank you to all of you who entered. NaNo is going well so far. I’m over 7000 words into the Good Bones sequel. Here’s what Halloween looked like at my house. Can you identify which character my …
This is what my office looked like when I arrived Monday morning: My secretary did a good job, didn’t she? I especially like the giant spider on my chair. I’ve moved the webs away from my chair and monitor so I can work, but the rest remain. Very festive. (The giant gavel, the serotonin model, …
I’m feeling slightly guilty, because while some of you are buckling down for dangerous weather, we’re having a beautiful day here in California. It’s supposed to be 80F here today. But hard as it is to believe today, the winter holidays are just around the corner. I’ll have two holiday short stories released in December. …
Recently, I was sitting in the kitchen, typing away at my laptop. I usually am. And my older daughter, who’s 13, was making a sandwich. “Hey, Mom?” she said. I probably grunted a reply. “What would you do if I told you I was gay? I’m not, but what would you do?” Well, that got …
Today I’m going to talk about donations and then hit you up for one. I give all the royalties from my Praesidium trilogy (Stasis, Flux, and Equipoise) to Doctors Without Borders. Not only is the cause an excellent one, but the charity itself is well-run, so that a very large proportion of donations actually goes …
I am back from GayRomLit. Didn’t get much sleep, but had a wonderful time and met some really fantastic people. I didn’t actually take that many photos, but I have a few to share. There were go-go boys. And chiles. Lots and lots of chiles. I’ve never been to New Mexico before and had no …
