laliandraExciting things that have happened today.
1. Chapter 1 of The Demon's Lexicon is up! No, wait !!! The Demon's Lexicon, Chapter One: Ravens in the Kitchen
. And it's good. Really good actually. And another awesome thing is that thanks to the wonder that is LiveJournal I got to tell Sarah what I thought, which made her pleased and I got my questions answered and the happiness of feeling all engaged in a writer/reader dialogue.
2.ladyjaida has posted saying that there will be two more books in the universe of Havemercy, a book I adored extraordinarily much. And that one of them may involve the post HM travels of two of the characters who set off for adventures at the end of the book.
3. I have confirmed visitors this weekend and the weekend after, people from homehome, like people I went to school with who I haven't spent lots of time with in aaages. And me and Mal will be able to do our usual great swop of fantasy and other cool books, so I can introduce him to HM as well. And then me and Cat and Li will be able to go chat about all the crazy times of our youth and go dancing. (incidentally coming up with pseudonyms for my friends on this blog is another thing I enjoy waaay too much. There is serious thought and reasoning behind them that only I will ever know!)
4. I found the finishing touch to my Dad's parcel of birthday things. Its a Nelson Mandela finger puppet/magnet. My housemates were torn between utter shock and hysterical laughter when they saw it, which is of course the reaction I look for in a parental gift.
5. One of my seminars got cancelled so I came home and wrote and wrote. I have massively re wrtten some of the long fic, started a drabble for my community, done some plotting for a vague thing of my own and may possibly have written a little Harry/Draco steampunk thing.
Lal is a happy little geek today...

and I couldn't resist...
The finger puppets were cool but bizarre. I want the whole set now, they had many famous figures.
That candle = bizarre but cool also! I love stuff like that.
