State of the Nome: Holiday time!

[naomi_jay]

No more work until October 11th! Huzzahs! That's a whole week of nothing but doing whatever I want to do, and what I mostly want to do is nothing. Well, there are plans. But they're fun plans, so it's okay.

The Plan - Writing

1. Finish my steampunk story, Dr Dewson's Analytical Soul Decipherer, for submission to Static Movement's steampunk anthology.
2. Finish critiquing a friend's novel for her (it's fabulous!)
3. Get cracking on the Scarlett novel, which still needs a title. I've got about 2k already; I'd like to have added to that by the end of next week.

The Plan - Miscellaneous

1. Apparently on Monday we are hosting a Ross Noble/The Human Centipede night. I can't imagine The Human Centipede improves on a second viewing or anything, but it seems I can't stop it happening. At least there will be Ross Noble to make it better.
2.chaostheory  has cocktail vouchers! I have a great love of cocktails! It's a match made in heaven.
3. I would like to teach Ket not to use me as a toilet. Or at least I would like to teach him he can also use Kyle as a toilet, should he choose. I'm not sure exactly how I will achieve this, but it may involve buying a flute for snake-charming or something. 

Why yes, that is a beautiful silk kimono you're about to crap on, Ket.
 

 And remember, the Anti-Nano Cult is now up and running. If you're interested, check it out and sign up! Everyone's projects sound very cool so far, and I'm really looking forward to reading the excerpts throughout November.

So he's a free-range snake? Bugger - if he stayed in one place all day, hopefully he wouldn't shat on you or your stuff.

Lol, nah, he's not big enough to be free-range yet. He has a very nice vivarium, but he's developed a sneaky habit of waiting until we take him out to play before he does his business.

Enjoy your vacation! :)

Ket is a pretty snake. Love his coloring. I NEVER thought I'd say that about a snake. lol

He's cute, isn't he? His colouring is called creamsicle, which always makes me laugh.

Makes me think of ice cream. lol I haven't had a creamsicle in years.
