Fatally Flawed Snow

4JanuarySuzanneHome in the Rookery, Just for Laughs, Uncategorized

Our five-yeal old has been pining for snow this winter, as she hasn’t seen any since she was two.Â Today as I opened the big freezer we keep in the garage she noticed the frost coating the wall and asked if she could have some of this ‘snow’. She touched various bits, and got a

Grabbing the New Year with Both Hands

3JanuarySuzanneHome in the Rookery

I’m back.Â After a great Christmas (though hectic) and a germ-ridden New Years (though quiet) I’ve officially taken myself off the absentee list. Time to pounce on the opportunities of the newly-hatched year before they grow into smoking dragons and tearing wyverns that shred me at the first sign of weakness.Â The only way to

WOTF Results 4th quarter 2006

24DecemberSuzanneWriting

I just got the email, which is much faster than they were last time with the results. Keela (aka Voice of the Sea) placed as a quarter-finalist.Â Ironically, I’m happier about it this time than I was with Warrior’s Flame.Â I wasn’t confident Keela would place at all, as it didn’t seem like their kind

Star’s Seduction

22DecemberSuzanneWriting

I sent Star’s Seduction off to Full Unit Hookup this morning.Â It’s kind of a weird story, so maybe FuHu will be a good fit. I’ll be hearing back on a batch of stories sometime in the next month, so I’m getting others out the door as quickly as I can.Â I find it much

Chilling Through the Holidays

20DecemberSuzanneBlogging, Home in the Rookery

Consider yourselves forewarned.Â With Christmas at the doorstep I’m giving myself permission to go into holiday blogging mode, which means I only blog if I can’t stop myself. I know the withdrawal from my witty, fascinatingÂ and informative writing will be hard to take, but I promise to return in January fully refreshed and ready to

Icarus Going Out

I made a few minor changes to Icarus, then sent it back out into the cold. Keep your fingers crossedÂ that it finds a warm welcomeÂ with the editor ofÂ Ideomancer.

When the Toilet Wanders Off

17DecemberSuzanneHome in the Rookery, Just for Laughs

We seem to be having bathroom difficulties lately.Â Namely, the toilets have shifted anywhere from three feet to six inches from where they’re supposed to be. And the really odd thing is that only the kids have noticed. First our daughter (the four-year old) noticed this shift when she ran for the bathroom but found

Names For Obscure Unknowns

14DecemberSuzanneJust for Laughs, Writing

This is a list of names [found on Canongate]Â for things that you might not guess had a name.Â Some of them I’ve heard of, some I’m a littleÂ suspicious of, but they’re certainly interesting. I hear my stomach wamble so I’ll go get my cup off the zarf.Â I’ll nestle the cup in myÂ purlicue and be
