I am a busy bee this time of year. Except, this time I have added plot twists!
- Mimir climbed to my trophy shelf and fell off when he tipped it over. He’s fine(ish) now. He’s seen a vet, has meds, etc… I swear these cats are trying to keep me on my toes. (Also, if you missed it, Leeloo is doing great.)
- Busy medical month. All routine. All fine. Just time consuming and interrupting my normal schedule. I dislike my schedule being interrupted.
- I have a convention next week. Origins Game Fair. The Husband will be staying home to babysit the house, the cats, and the kitchen reno. First time in a long time that I will be traveling without the Husband (especially since I’m vending at this con). I will miss him, but it’ll be fine. I’ll be rooming with the ever-fabulous Amanda Cherry!
- The big thing. It’s exactly four months since I stopped having a real kitchen. Last week, tile was supposed to go in, but didn’t because of some very good reasons. This week they were supposed to go in, but didn’t for more reasonable reasons. Next week, hopefully.
- Even more hopefully, I will come back from Origins with a lot more kitchen than I have right now. (As you see above and below.) That would be nice.
- I’m working on the galleys for Shadowrun: Imre Grey right now. Peter Tikos did such an amazing job on the cover art. I’m so pleased. I will show it to you as soon as I can.
- Reminder: If you can vote in the Hugos, please consider me for Best Editor, Short Form. Hugo voting will close on August 8, 2026 at noon PDT.
I think that’s it. Busy-busy me is still thinking of you.
