Update: If you were a member of the old Meg Silver forums, you will automatically become a member of the new forums. You will receive an email once you’ve been added; people will be added in batches and unfortunately, I have no idea on the time frame. Emma, my right hand who’s helping do all this stuff, has a day job in accounting, and it’s tax season. So she’s a little swamped, and I’m a little useless when it comes to some of this technical stuff. Thanks for your continued patience.

Confession: I have never seen Cameron’s Titanic. [The one with Rose and Jack and the frozen babies (hence the no-watchy)].

Things are getting back to normal around here. I love it. What I DON’T love is my inability to find some notes I made about two weeks ago. You’d think, as long as I’ve been doing this, I’d know better than to leave something on my desk, but noooooooo…. Have a great Monday. Make someone else’s Monday a great one, too.

Today’s deep thought: Will I still be able to wear my favorite orange sweater once I’m no longer jaundiced?
Continue ReadingImpatient Patient
Everything’s going well, here. I’m still sore and loopy, but definitely on the mend. Thanks for your continued patience while we work on the site. (Well, while Emma works on the site. I only pretend to help, sitting here looking confused, mostly. I’m quite good at that.)
Continue ReadingSunday Confession
I’m doing the confession a little bit early this week for reasons that’ll soon be obvious. Confession: I haven’t been feeling too hot since about Thanksgiving. I finally went to the clinic Friday morning, went straight to the surgeon for one procedure, and by this time tomorrow (Monday), I will have evicted a very ornery gall bladder. So. Deadlines shot all to hell, website updates suspended (expect disruption), and it’ll be pretty quiet around here until one thought can follow another without veering off into la-la land. Not that they ever can, but still. Happy St. Paddy’s, everyone.

Okay, so I finally have a date when we can expect things to start going a little haywire due to site updates: March 16. This is the day stuff transfers from one host to the other. I hope there won’t be any disruption but… Yeah. We all know better, right? Also, it’s confirmed that the forums as we’ve known them are toast. I do apologize for this, but if you only knew what a headache it was to NOT own the content on there and have to kiss a certain company’s filter’s backside all the time? Oi. We’ll have way more fun on the forums once we’ve moved house. Bad… Read More

I never really understood irrational fear until two years ago, when I happened across a picture on one of the I Can Has Cheezburger blogs. It showed a foot sporting a pedicure with long toenails. I wigged. (And no, don’t even ask me to post a link. I’d rather punch a kitten in the face than go looking for that picture.) To this day, in the summer, you won’t catch me looking lower than someone’s knees, just in case they might have froufrou toenails.

Another heads up: Looking ahead to when FH 1-9 are bundled for print, Joy and I are planning to experiment a bit with covers. I don’t know yet how soon these tests will happen. Just don’t be alarmed by any changes; the books aren’t being pirated or anything. We really are messing around with the cover art. Also, I want to talk about something that’s been making me feel kinda’ bad/guilty, lately. I figured I’d talk about it here on the blog instead of private emails so that everybody knows my two-part review policy, and will hopefully understand why these two policies are in place. First, I do not respond… Read More
Continue ReadingHeads Up
A heads-up for visitors: Behind the scenes, some changes will be made to the site over the next several weeks. This could mean interruptions in service, wild variations in navigation and appearance, and other forms of general chaos INCLUDING a possible Armageddon-shaped revamp of the forums. If you subscribe to the blog feed, I’m trying to make sure that stays as un-disrupted as possible, for as long as possible, but the address will change by the time all is said and done. I will keep everyone as updated as possible while we work through the overhaul.
