This being the final chapter, there's been a lot of death and destruction. In fact, I just murdered almost all of my human characters and stranded the few survivors thousands of light-years from home.

Fortunately, I have a plan.

In other news, I have been accepted to the Taos Toolbox Writers' Workshop! This two-week workshop (in Taos, New Mexico in June), taught by Walter Jon Williams and Kelly Link with special guest lecturer Stephen R. Donaldson, is a "graduate-level" workshop for writers who have already been to Clarion or Odyssey and/or have made some short fiction sales, and has an emphasis on the craft of the novel. It should be a lot of fun. (If you're interested, and have two weeks and $2800 to spare, applications are still being accepted.)

The only downside is that it conflicts with the Fourth Street Fantasy Convention. Oh well, there's always next year.

Taos is going to be so great (*envies*).

Fortunately, I have a plan.

Just channeled Blackadder there for a moment. Though it really needs to be a Cunning Plan for that.

What are the chances that you'll have a book in print by January of 2010? Just curious...

Fortunately, I have a plan.

Is it a cunning plan? Those are the best kind.
