\"Gumshoe<\/a>We went live with the magazines at midnight on September 1st, but we just finished all the tweaks and polishing of the chrome this evening.\u00a0 The major problem this month was me.\u00a0 Yup, me.<\/p>\n

I got the flu or a cold but it might be the flu.\u00a0 Yes, I googled the symptoms and I’ve got all of them so I don’t know what I’ve got.\u00a0 So, I’ve been dragging around for a couple of weeks barely getting out of my own way and trying to do the things that absolutely had to be done and smoothing over the rest.\u00a0 That means I OCR documents, put the pages together and proofed\u00a0 them.\u00a0 Entered and proofed reviews that were sent to me.\u00a0 Stared at the screen for inordinate amounts of time but didn’t add a line to my novel.\u00a0 Sent out the announcement of the finalists for the WSFA Small Press Award. I answered some email and entered books.<\/p>\n

And I read.\u00a0 I don’t know what most people do but when I don’t feel good I read.\u00a0\u00a0 I read nearly everything I was assigned this month and then some.\u00a0 The problem is that, feeling as crappy as I did — I didn’t write the reviews immediately but waited.\u00a0 I thought, silly me, that I’d write them the last three days of the month since I’d already taken notes and stuck stickies in the books to remind me of things I could do that.\u00a0 Except I then got laryngitis and Hyperion got sick and several people who normally don’t wait to the last minute did and ….<\/p>\n

Well, I ended up adding new material on September 1st and 2nd.\u00a0 So, now we’re really done with the zines and so, if you already checked it out — check again — there may be new stuff because I combed my email today for everything I missed and now–deep sigh,\u00a0 it’s time to start all over again for the October issue.<\/p>\n

Speaking of upcoming events, I’m hoping to get an interview with Monica Fairview the author of The Other Mr. Darcy<\/em> in October.\u00a0 She’s doing a blog tour and I’m hoping she’ll be able to squeeze it in between stops.\u00a0 I’ve got the list of the blogs she’ll be visiting and will post it closer to the start of her tour and just before I post my review of the book.<\/p>\n

Gumshoe is going to be running an interview with Laura Childs in October to go with the release of her new book, Tragic Magic (A Scrapbooking Mystery)<\/em>.\u00a0 I’ll also be reviewing season one of The No. 1 Ladies’ Detective Agency<\/em>.<\/p>\n

\"SFRevu<\/a>On the SFRevu side, I need to see what books we’re reviewing for October and start contacting people to line up an interview.\u00a0 The problem is usually not that there aren’t enough people to ask but that I dither on trying to decide who to ask because I want to ask them all.<\/p>\n

Then there’s the knitting.\u00a0 I’ve got a pair of socks on the needles and the first one is nearly to the heel.\u00a0 I’ve got a sweater that needs to be steam pressed and hemmed and a button added.\u00a0 And, I’ve got two other started sweaters that I hope to finish this fall.\u00a0 Then there’s the spinning of yarn that I need to do.\u00a0 I’d hoped to get some spinning done by requesting an audio book for review but when it arrived it was print–no problem but I was looking forward to the listening time.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, I’m trying to get my act together to get geared up for Capclave 2010<\/a>. I’m really excited about the opportunity to be a convention chair and hope that the convention will turn out to be one that everyone enjoys from the Guests of Honor to the Volunteers to the attendees.<\/p>\n

Looking this over, I think I may be over-committed…nah…it will be fun.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
