Today was very much a lazy day. insatia and I picked up the items that didn't sell from sasjhwa's ebay business. I'm going to try to put a bunch of the leftovers up tomorrow.

Then we hung out with Clay and Debbie. insatia is a big fan of Rock Star, which is a super version of Guitar Hero, only with drums, a guitar, and a microphone. However, I think we managed to get in some aversion therapy as we ended up having to do Areosmith's "Train Keeps a Rolling" about ten thousand times and never did manage to do it enough to pass the level.

And afterwards, insatia played "Knights of Radiata," the video game I gave her for Christmas. She's been getting her game on this weekend. I've been editing and taking notes down about future projects.

I've been cleaning up my agent query letters. I had help from a couple of members of the IAMTW. They are very much a friendly org to be a part of.

Dreams in a Dragon's House Query Letter

I finished my last edit of Dreams in a Dragon's House.

And, I think I discovered something I had forgotten. A joy of writing. A love of putting words down on paper. Sometimes, you look so much at the destination that you forget to enjoy the journey.

This is my first draft of the query letter. If anyone with experience has any feedback, I’d appreciate it.

New Projects

Now that I finished editing Dreams in a Dragon's House, I started looking through my notes to try to decide what project to tackle next.

I came across a YA idea for a series titled DarkHome Academy: School for Exceptional Villany.

Also, did you know that German POWs were kept in the US during WW, picking cotton? http://www.historynet.com/magazines/world_war_2/11024351.html There's got to be some sort of story in this.
