The Night To-Do List

And you can read that as either The Night Kitchen or The Night Circus (which I am very eager to read, but has to wait until I finish The Magician King. And yes, Catherine Valente was right when she said the Quentin still needed to be smacked out of the book.  I do like Julia, though.)

Heart’s Master is humming along nicely. I did almost 7000 words last week (6,999), which is good because I fell over with the flu Friday afternoon, and didn’t write a blessed word yesterday.  I tried to take a day off on Wednesday, and still wrote over 800 words. Which just goes to show I don’t write because I want to, I write because I HAVE to.

In any case, I’m almost ready to start posting chapters to the ERWA Storytime board for critique. That will wait, I think, until mid-November, though. Princes of Air comes out in just over a month, and I will be doing promo (which will probably be starting either October 1st or the 15th. Watch this space!) The week after the book comes out, I am slated to do an Livejournal author chat on the Circlet Press LJ.  So progress on Heart’s Master may just slow to a crawl.

So, on to the To-dos.

To Revise:

• Nomad”s Moon (?) — Wait for response from small press

To Write:

• Heart’s Master (used to be Drum Mage)
• Playing For Keeps (short story to launch Tales from the Arena)
• The Willow Sword
• Sea Prince (To be written with Danielle Jones)
• Wanderer’s Moon (next book in the Midnight Moon series. Not to be done until we sell Nomad’s Moon)

To Outline

• Coral Throne (sequel to Sea Prince)
• Hidden Things (Mystere Book 1)
• The Lady and the Sword (Mystere Book 2)
• Ashes and Light (Mystere Book 3)
• Tablets of Stone (Mystere Book 4)
• Rainbow Wars (the teach-in idea. Definitely a  YA. And it needs a better title)
• Holy Orders ( Sequel to Heart’s Master)

To Sell

• Nomad’s Moon
• Exile’s Moon
• Silk Skin (short story)
• Infernal Machine (reprint, sent to Mammoth Book of Best New Erotica)
