And a change of pace.

Love her look here.

Not even the 15th and I've actually been remarkably productive. Lots of good stuff happening, even in the face of other things. Financial foo continues, but appears to be slowly straightening out. Just knocking one thing down at a time.

Pumpkin is a flat out miracle kitten.

He's noticeably bigger. His eyes no longer bug out, so he no longer looks like an alien gray with patchy black fur. Little white furs are starting to grow in on his back and this morning?

This morning, he *mewed at me*. For breakfast. He's never done that.

And then he *purred*. He never audibly purred till this morning.

FeLV + or not, he's improving.

He's probably always going to be a special need kitty, with all that he's gone through. But I've gone from hope to a tiny bit of relief.

Hunt Press has pushed out the pre-order for Monica Marier's Must Love Dragons. Check it out! It's a hoot!

I've gotten in the weeds a bit with the final chapter of Broken Rainbow, but I've finally fought my way to the first wave of confrontations.

Just gotta keep swinging.

Absolutely LOVE 'Red Fan.' Will order a print as soon as I'm able to find the cash.

I'm thrilled to hear about Pumpkin! I do not want to give false hope at all...I've seen a number of cats die from FeLV and it's ugly stuff. But I read something interesting just the other day--apparently kittens that have tested positive for FeLV sometimes overcome the virus. Short version: have Pumkin and the rest of the kids tested again in 6-8 months. Might go better than first expected.

*keeping fingers crossed and appealing to Sekhmet, bringer and curer of plagues*

Yay! Will be thrilled to death to get a print to you when you're ready.

I also am feeling so much better about Pumpkin. I'd also heard about that. We're just going to keep propitiating Bast and Sekhmet. He's been a miracle so far. I don't see why he won't manifest another one.

Oh, and...how does one inquire about submitting a book proposal to Hunt Press?

[angela-n-hunt.livejournal.com]

*grin*

One goes here:

http://huntpress.com/Submissions.html

And one (please oh please) reads carefully and follows the guidelines. :)

Now this one will be waiting with great interest!

lol...I'm mostly gathering information at this point. It's possible that my current book project might be better suited to a micropress than a larger publisher. And I don't know much about micropresses yet.

A question based on the carefully read submission guidelines:

For (non-memoir) nonfiction, it's customary (with agents and larger presses) to submit a proposal rather than a complete mss. Does Hunt Press accept proposals?

[angela-n-hunt.livejournal.com]

We most certainly accept proposals for non-fiction.
