Dealing with some crappy health stuff at the moment, blargh. I guess it's better to deal with it and hopefully eventually get it under control rather than ignore it and let things get worse. Future-Mary should be grateful that I'm looking out for her wellbeing for a change! Usually I just leave her lots of crappy stuff to get done at the last minute.
Anyway, since I don't want to think about that, I have started going through Amazon to collect a list of titles I want to track down as research for Next Novel. This is one of the best parts of the whole writing process -- the ideas are all new and fresh and exciting and I haven't fucked anything up or failed to be good enough yet! Woo!
This one's going to be a bit of a departure for me, because while I feel that New Novel and the Wolf House books are different enough to justify both existing, they cover a lot of similar themes to one another. Now I want to do something different! And likely just as rubbish, in the end, but I'll cope with that later.
(Yes, in case it isn't obvious, I have now hit the post-novel self-hatred funk portion of our programming. Exciting!)
