I think, not sure but I think, my story "Alike As Two Bees" will be published on April 6th.

I'm just going to take a deep breath and try to decide what to do about it. [Driving to Caerleon to deliver daughter to do make up for zombie movie will give me time to do that.] Fair warning though, friends list, I might get a bit boring about it come early April.

You get as 'boring' as you like. And why not. It's a wonderful achievement matey. Anyway, I love hearing about other writers successes. I don't think it's boring at all. I'd be throwing a HUGE party if (when!) I have anything published. :-)

We'll call that a 'when' for definite. :)

Yes, I think it's brilliant to see friends books climbing the ratings. And there are some absolute doozies to look forward to at the moment.

Yay! Congratulations! Sounds like a good reason to celebrate if ever I heard one :)

I made a little 'eeeee' sound when I heard. :D I'll celebrate a bit more completely when I have the galley proof and cover and so forth. It'll seem more real then.

Congratulations on the publishing date! And the daughter working at a zombie movie, too!

Wasn't that the intention?

[identity profile] elin-gregory.livejournal.com 2012-01-22 10:34 pm (UTC)(link)
Absolutely. And just fyi, the syrup from tinned cherries mixed with golden syrup and a little red food colouring makes really good edible fake blood.

Interesting. I'll keep that in mind in case we'll ever aim to be zombies eating body parts.

That's exciting! Bore away girl, I'm looking forward to hearing all about it!

XD it's a giggle, isn't it.

Yay!! I can't wait to hear tone more about this -- congrats on the forthcoming release :D

Thanks, sweetie. I'm not quite sure how to describe it, really. M/M, as historical as I can make it, set in ancient Greece and really rather un-erotic. But I enjoyed writing it and I hope someone enjoys reading it too. :)

You will come and do a guest interview at my LJ, for example and please?

[identity profile] elin-gregory.livejournal.com 2012-01-22 09:25 pm (UTC)(link)
Ooh, that would be brilliant! Thank you so much for the suggestion.

Woot! Go you!

[identity profile] elin-gregory.livejournal.com 2012-01-22 10:40 pm (UTC)(link)
Thanks sweetie. I'm so pleased, and just a little sad that I can't tell [livejournal.com profile] irana. She'd have been so surprised!

[identity profile] gaycrow.livejournal.com 2012-01-22 11:03 pm (UTC)(link)
And very happy for you too. *hugs*
