2014 was a year of extremes, good and bad.
- Job. I spent the first half of the year unemployed and anxious, and then BOOM! A former manager contacted me out of the blue and offered me a really good job. I work from home, my co-workers think I'm awesome, and I am regularly told I'm doing a great job.
- Travel, whoo, travel! I was a guest at a first year con in Kansas, and had a lovely time. I went to VMB and Vespertine down in PDX. Thanks to the overwhelming generosity of some friends, I was able to attend Bats Day at Disneyland! (OMG DISNEYLAND.) But I had to cancel on a con at the last minute because of a health emergency with Dad, and the RealHusband spent a month in the UK, helping his mum clear through the family home.
- Writing. I'm still updating Gothic Charm School, the book is still in print after FIVE YEARS, and I finally earned out my advance! My agent gave me fantastic feedback on the fiction project ... and I need to sit down and finish the second draft. While taking notes on a completely different fiction project that is lurking around my brain.
- Health. Meh. I have good days, I have bad days. That's really all I can say.
- Fannish obsessions. HELLO PENNY DREADFUL, YOU ARE THE SHOW OF MY HEART. Plus Hannibal, but Penny Dreadful is pretty much everything I ever wanted in a show.
- Family (blood and chosen). Dad is healthy, and has a wonderful ladylove. My assorted godchildren are smart, charming, and crazy. My friends and I have been taking turns propping each other up during various stressful moments, which is as it should be.
May 2015 be much kinder and gentler with us all.
