Yuletide letter is basically done now! If you saw the blank version and were saddened, be comforted that it is now quite full of blathering.

...that was kind of exhausting, gosh.

Also I signed up for NaNo, but I'm going to just cheat with 'finish wips' again as usual, although I am going to try to make half my wordcount on original works, we'll see if that goes. Anyway, if you want to watch me lose you can add me on the site, I'm melannen there as usual.

Meanwhile I am trying to get the second quarter of the Night in the Lonesome October crossover finished & posted by Halloween, we'll see. I'm getting to the point where I need to put feelings in it. ;_; writing is hard.

Also this weekend I have tentative plans to go to a used book sale in Baltimore, hang out with friends and watch Muppets and give comics to trick-or-treaters, and then on Sunday go eat leftover candy with fangirls. I'm trying to decide if I should try to squeeze "Finally watch The Martian" in there somewhere or if that would be a bad idea and I would fall over.

I'm also seriously thinking about doing ChessieCon in Baltimore at the end of November. I never did get around to writing up CapClave, did I? It was sufficiently fun that maybe doing a slightly larger one with more guests I care about would be worth it, anyway.
