Yep, I did. So, I am going for it next week. Cross any appendage for me, please. This time, there will be a panel of four interviewers. And guess when. Imbolc. 1st of February!

You bet I am going to light candles the night before.

Next week will also be known as Saber-Holding-Fort-Alone, as D will be flying off to Nuremberg for a toy convention.

The Rider offer is still on. It has passed the 600th download (though not sure if people will actually read it). Over two years, 600 downloads. Not too bad.

That brings me to ask questions:

1. Do people actually like FREE downloads?
2. Will people actually READ free novellas?
3. What does it say about people in general?

Second day of the Chinese New Year is now officially over. Visited my side of the family today and caught up with my favorite cousin who came back from Scotland. Ate a lot. Talked a lot. The girls enjoyed themselves tremendously.

Came back to consume awesome chicken and abalone soup. More eating of popiah.

Now, winding down for the night.

I put up pictures on my writery blog: Enter The Water Dragon.

Likewise, the novella offer - I have extended it for an extended period. If you like Asian YA (young adult) SFF with a futuristic setting and flying alien pterosaurs, get it at Smashwords.

You noticed that I am posting at DW. LJ is on the fritz again.

I went for the interview at a local polytechnic. Fingers crossed for round two?

And Gong Xi Fa Cai! For a limited time only, I have posted a YA novella, Rider, in its entirety, on Smashwords: here be dragons.

Preparing for the Lunar New Year now. :)

Next interview on this Thursday.

Posted Chapter Eight of Path Of Kindness.

Updated A Wolf's Tale. Help my UF!

~*~

Started swimming again. I am determined to lose some weight and look cool at the same time.

Lunar New Year is this weekend!

Went for an interview.

And now I am a course developer/teacher.

Next week, another interview.

I am still coughing. GP put me on antibiotics this time. My lymph nodes are swollen.

So, some update from me. I will probably write more on my Wordpress blog.

I have bronchitis.

I am a person prone to having bronchitis.

So, been sleeping the whole of Sunday. Even now when I type, my body still feels the lingering effects of the cough medication.

Many things happening: last full moon of the Year of the Rabbit before the new year rolls out with a draconic roar, plans that need to be kicked into action and (potential) work.

I inhale and my chest hurts. Hot Pu'Er soothes me, the warmth filling my insides, centering between my breasts.

I want to be healed.

Second day of the new year. Feeling physically unwell (coughing and menstrual problems). Still adjusting to the fact that I might not work this year.

Still writing.

Still watching my girls grow up, though these days, I dread their fights. :(

In about a few days's time, 2012 will replace 2011.

I posted most of my thoughts on A Wolf's Tale. And for fans of Oysters, Pearls and Magic, I have put up a guide so that you can use in bookclubs and small groups.

Happy New Year all!

Path of Kindness, chapter 6 is up and running.

Have a good Yule and Winter Solstice

~*~

I am doing last-minute shopping tomorrow. Daiso is a good idea.

It has been a tumultuous week for Singaporeans. The subway system apparently broke down and caused massive disruption. Likewise (for the world), Kim Jong II passed away as well as Vaclav Havel.

Change can be terrifying.

I have updated Goodreads link for Path Of Kindness. Chapter 5 is up.

I will be away for a while this week. A trip to Bali should rejuvenate me. :)

"Ark", a drabble, is in issue 008 of Luna Station Quarterly. Luna Station Quarterly is a publication dedicated to up-and-coming women authors. So, please do support them by signal boosting.

So, Advent has started. I know that many people on my f-list are not fans of Christian holidays. For me, as I am Christo-Pagan, Advent is part of my Wheel. It's a period which I go within. There is buying of stuff and pressies and what not. But I also tend the inner garden.

Speaking of gardens, my Mollucan spinach are growing well. They love the wet. Ceylon spinach is suddenly having a growth spurt. It too loves the wet. Shelob munches away at random bugs - loves how she dissolves all the insect parts. :P One day the worm is whole, the second it is chopped up in tiny bits.
heart
Rest in peace.

Updatia.

We are well into November now. I am busy writing (if I have time) the third book of the Jan Xu series. We also celebrated Cub's birthday (11-11-11). In between, I managed to squeeze in a book launch and a BBQ.

Midnight, our black kitty, has kidney issues (of which D isn't saying at the moment - I will go prod it out of him). Her blood count isn't good, apparently. At the moment, she looks fine and a little indignant. I am probably on her hate list now. Please do keep her in your prayers. I have lost Cat and Sugar. I don't want to lose another cat.

Happier news: I bought a pitcher plant and named it Shelob (for obvious reasons).

For people who have been keeping an eye on my venture into writing: Goodreads page for Obsidian Moon, Obsidian Eye
