Quick update

I should be getting ready for church, so I just wanted to quickly say thanks for all the good wishes. I’m already moved down to Utah–it came together quicker than I thought, given that I was already apartment hunting and had found someone for the room in my previous house already–and I’ve got a few freelance editing … Read more

Things they are a-changin’

I don’t know if the grapevine has reached as far as my blog readers, so I wanted to let everyone know what’s up now that I’ve had a few moments to breathe.    Yesterday was my last day with Mirrorstone. I am no longer an editor at Wizards of the Coast. It breaks my heart, … Read more

Mirrorstone changes submission guidelines

Many of you have written to ask about the recent announcement about the Wizards of the Coast publishing program. (See the official news release if you haven’t heard about it.) As you can see, the Discoveries imprint will cease publishing at the end of the year, and Mirrorstone will now focus solely on books inspired … Read more

You say it’s your birthday

Well, it’s my birthday too, yeah. Thanks for all the birthday wishes! I’m sure it’ll be a good day, though just as busy as the rest of them. Sorry I’ve been out of touch lately–it’s been rather crazy around these parts! 

More geektastic pony painting–Wizards style

As promised, though really belatedly (sorry, I’ve been very busy lately), here are the ponies from our pony painting party at work. Mine, as already noted, is the Scheherezade pony. I should have given her eyes more detail. Susan’s Icharus pony: Cortney’s steampunk clockwork pony: Phil’s Egyptian pony of death:   Nina’s very sweet (just like her) … Read more

Pony painting

As requested, pictures of the ponies. I forgot to bring Scheherezade back to work today, but I took some shots of her with my niece’s ponies (she spent the night last night and we dyed ponies for her; we’ll have to have another session next week to paint them because we ran out of time–dying took … Read more

Pony painting

I forgot my camera today, so you will just have to take my word (until tomorrow, when I will NOT forget my camera) that I had the best afternoon ever yesterday, painting ponies with my coworkers. You can buy a blank My Little Pony and dye it, paint it, add wings or feathers or whatever you want. (Examples of … Read more

Back, but busy

As you can probably tell from my two-week posting absence, I had a great time on my vacation and at BYU Writing for Young Readers. Not much news to report–at least, nothing that would take the few minutes I have to post right now–so I’ll just leave you with my favorite shot from the conference.  … Read more

Heading out early

I ac tually got out of work a day early, so I’m off to pack and do laundry and all those other fun things you have to do before a vacation. It’s unlikely I’ll have a lot of time to keep up on the internet, if I even have internet access, so it’s likely going … Read more
