woot! woot! That's the sound of publication

two nice things for today:

1) 365 tomorrows are going to publish another of my stories. Yay!
2) 365 tomorrow did one of my stories as a podcast! Double yay!

stupid better ideas, or better stupid ideas

Reasons to be irritated: I was most of the way through plotting the follow up to Jack In The Green, needing only to write up the chapter by chapter plot when a better idea whacked me over the back of my head. An idea so much better that I'd have to go through and change pretty much everything. So now it's back to the drawing board.

Reasons to be delighted: it really really is a better idea. A new character, a new voice, possibly even a new love interest (or at least a frisson). The book will be a better place with this in it.
