Nome gets organised, prepares for doom

naomi_jayI have a nasty suspicion I'm getting sick. I've had the most horrific case of hayfever going on since about March. Anti-histimines have been a daily part of my diet since about April and I've been using my inhaler every morning since about May, something that hasn't happened since about 1997. And today I feel either too hot or too cold depending on whether I'm standing up or sitting down. I also have a headache. Rah.
Anyway, my impending doom aside, I'm making my annual attempt to organise my writing. My incredibly rough schedule looks kinda like this at the moment:
* Right now - finish Wild (or "Heroine on heroin" as I like to call it) before November 1st.
* Nanowrimo - Midnight Scream theoretically gets written.
* Post-Nanowrimo - revise Fire and Shadow, coz it's about damn time.
* Revise Wild and be prepared to cut thousands and thousands of words lovingly detailing Lizzie's descent into drug-fuelled paranoia and werewolf-related madness. Le sigh.
* Revise Midnight Scream (or finish it, depending on how well Nanowrimo goes).
* Cunningly plot sequel to Wild, entitled Savage (or "Lizzie does Liverpool").
* Even more cunningly plot sequel to Midnight Scream, entitled Immortal Skin.
* Even more cunningly plot that faerie-homeless children thing I've been thinking about since April.
This should take me up to roughly the End Times, by which point I may well have died of whatever mysterious disease has just caused me to type out the same epic paragraph about accommodation facilities at the Isaac Newton Institute four freaking times. We shall see...
