No one ever told me

that part of being a published writer would involve searching the internet for a good price on metallic vinyl lizards. The things I do for my craft.

In other writing news, thanks to kaygo for the reminder that National Novel Writing Month is rapidly approaching. I know people who swear by this as a way to get their writing kick-started. Every year I think about it, but November is never a good time for me. This year I've got WFC and an out of town business trip in the first two weeks of November. But I'll see what I can get done with the rest of the month.

ETA: Yes, it's currently snowing here. On October 25th. Enough said.

Moving to Ireland?! Do tell.

Yes! Off on a grand adventure! Through a fortunate circumstance of birth I hold dual citizenship, so we're taking advantage of that and zooming off to the other side of the world. My husband's a chef, and the culinary opportunities in Dublin are a lot more interesting than the ones in Anchorage, and there are tax benefits to being a writer in Ireland, and they have national health care, and we haven't had insurance since I got laid off... all sorts of things. But mostly: ADVENTURE HO! :)

Congratulations, it sounds wonderful. I hope you and your husband have an excellent adventure.

I think we're bound to: his name is Ted. :)

Congratulations! Best wishes for a most excellent adventure.
I'll helpfully volunteer to carry luggage....
(I was going to say, I don't take up much space, but, oh, well, that darn truth fixation rears its ugly head again.)
