I often post miscel­la­neous bits and pieces about writing, or at least my thoughts on the process, at my live­journal, msagara​.live​journal​.com. I can cross-post those here if people are more comfort­able asking ques­tions here, and if you have an opinion about that, either way, please let me know.

I mostly wanted to move the bibli­og­raphy to some­place it was easier for me to update because I am utterly hope­less at site updating without some sort of easily accessed gui. Which Word­Press does have. Does it work? Well, no; for some reason it imme­di­ately destroys all line-breaks, which makes format­ting anything that isn’t straight text a touch diffi­cult. It’s a total pain. But in theory I can update more frequently.

Of course, I don’t really have all that much to update at the moment; I’m working on House Name, which isn’t on the schedule yet (it being not very close to finished) and some­time soon, I will be reading the line-edits for Cast in Fury, which is an October title.

Part of the reason I don’t update frequently is because writing a book is long, slow, and marked by frequent bouts of hair-pulling and a certain sense that every­thing will be too long, which I can imagine is tedious for people who actu­ally want to read a book, and not a list of unfor­tu­nate complaints.

But: I will be going to the Worldcon in Denver this year. And I’ll be the GoH at Conclave 2008 in October, which is kind of exciting for me.
