UNlondon for the unpunningly inclined
I'm reading UnLunDun by China Mieville. After announcing to my mom it just didn't get me, but I was reading it for my own good, he lets Hemi (Cockney half-ghost boy) come back onstage and well... *is a goner*
That's a way he can get me. Deeba (heroine at large) is snappy in a fun way, but Zanna (purported messianic figure du jour [spelling that wrong, so no apostrophe for me]) is dry, and there's only two of them in a great wide world of concerned grownthings.
Hemi, you restored my faith. Many half-ghast blown kisses.
I'm spending the week avoiding sunburn as we do vacation sorts of things. I believe the touch of color on my forearms is due to reading. No kidding--outside when I thought I was shaded and it was plenty late in the day. Who's the fairest one of all? The lady who manages to conquer the sun's evil rays to maintain that healthy red-head pallor!
I now have too many books on my shelf. But for writing I've been focusing on the Aolon story (black market established--trouble to come) and the Regency Underground book I've put off reading is awesome and also timely. I'm mostly thinking about revision on my short stories. No drive to write any right now, so blanketing the market in a few weeks/months sounds about right...
