Well, I'm back from holidays, and I've spent most of my money, and look what I found in a bookshop in Brisbane:
My apologies for the poor quality of the photo. I was giggling too hard to hold my phone steady. I swear that one day I won't be so surprised when my two worlds collide, but that day was not last Tuesday. I may have got so excited I punched my sister.
I'm still more used to be a consumer in a bookshop, not a product.
It's weird, because sometimes writing feels like it happens in a vacuum, that all those long hours in front of a computer don't impact on my everyday life of working my government job and paying my mortgage and occasionally getting the vacuum cleaner out. And even when a book comes out, well, that still feels like it's happening in that online world, so it's always a bit of a shock when I'm reminded that it's real.
Okay, I'm going to put the crazy back in its box now.
In other news, to make up for my week of non-writing while I was in Brisbane, J.A. Rock and I might have gone absolutely mad with our WIP, tentatively titled Under. Seriously, we started this thing three weeks ago (and had a week off while I was away) and it's already at 90 000 words. Yep, 90 000. Nanowrimo is our bitch!
I've never written this fast in my life before. I think I have RSI. And some form of mental whiplash.
And if that's not enough, I'm also co-writing with the awesome Heidi Belleau at the moment. It's an m/m (of course), dark post-apocalyptic novel set in Ireland. And it's great fun to write!
Meanwhile, I'm pottering along on my Love Has No Boundaries story for the Goodreads M/M group. I mean, how could I refuse? Check out the picture and the prompt I snagged over at Goodreads.
