My Hero...

I've been very bad about keeping up with my LJ. Tumblr and WoW keep me pretty well distracted. *sheepish* The anthology I mentioned whose deadline was July 31st in my last post? That's been changed to December 31st. *headdesk* I have to wait several more months to hear about that one. I haven't really written anything for the story due on September 15th and the one that was due on September 30th has been scrapped. Or at least pushed so far back that it's not even on the schedule. There is an open call that'll be taking place the first week of October, so I'm going to submit something to that. In the meantime, I've been poking at my novel which has now hit 50,000 words! Whoo! I have another story in an anthology coming out on the 27th or 28th (I can't remember which just now). The original release date was the 9th, but it got shuffled back. I'm not sure why.

As far as school goes, I'm still on schedule to start my classes next month. I can buy two of my books as eBooks, so I'm going to do that and the third one is about $30, so that won't be too much of a problem. My plan is to buy as many eBook versions of my textbooks as I can to cut down on the number of hardcopies I'm left with at the end of the class. I intend to get a tablet that I can load them onto, but that'll have to wait a bit. I'm hoping to get back to working soon. At least it'll get me out of the house.

So that's the news from me. Anyone have anything they'd like to share?
