lydamorehouseI'm really sorry that I haven't updated here in a while. Coming out from under the book deadline has been particularly difficult this time around for some reason.
I've got a lot to do today. It's my day to volunteer at Mason's school, recycling, fish tank cleaning day (yes, I still have fish,) and in my writing life I've got a zillion things going on as well. I have a new Precinct 13 book proposal in the works that needs revising (and submitting), a short story that wants writing, and I need to prepare for my SF World Building class/workshop at the Loft on Saturday. Plus, there's a number of things the Loft folks want for advertising for the upcoming on-line class I'll be running in February.
BUT, I would be extremely neglectful if I didn't post a few Halloween pictures! Here's Mason in his monster/devil costume, looking very threatening:
Since I always tag along on his adventures, I threw together a Harry Potter costume:
I have a Slytherin patch on my robe, but could only find a tie in Ravenclaw colors, so I told everyone I was an "evil genius." :-)
As usual we went all out on decorations and pumpkins. Here's some of what we did:
So that was our Halloween. Now I've mostly cleaned up the yard, but the porch is still very decorated. Shawn is off to a business trip to Washington, D.C. today, which means I may either be super inspired to get things done around the house or wallow in lonliness. :-)
