Now Boarding…

I’m writing from the airport terminal of the Eastern Iowa airport on my way to Chicago on my way to Cleveland. Even though I’m not ready for Demicon yet (too much traveling and traveling preparation made for a night of Dead Like Me gluttony), on the road all I can do is MAYBE shop for my reading outfit and rewrite my scene for reading at Wiscon.

So, woohoo and color me fictional. 🙂 I’ll be trying to get that scene shored up to about twelve minutes, and then I’ll be happy to share it with you.

Meanwhile, rejection from Joy Harris at Joy Harris. I feel like a baseball card collector. Just this week I received a couple after two months, and that’s about as long as you should wait before you close them out as unknown, according to the literature, so I feel like I’m getting a complete set of cards. 🙂

Ooookay, so I’d best shut down. We board in 8 minutes. Catch you all, one hour ahead, in Cleveland. Or not. It’ll be an academic schmoozing, latte tippling whirlwind.

Have a great weekend.

One thought on “Now Boarding…”

  1. Ow! O’Hare, or as it’s known around here, the Seventh Circle of Hell. Just yesterday I was delayed going through O’Hare, and last Friday it took me 15 hours to get home (throuh O’Hare, ugh) from Dayton. I’ve gotten to know the G concourse very well. They don’t have enough plugs…

    Good luck on your travels!
