Much a-squee about something...

Sorry I've been so lazy with the updating, but spending long days with little children isn't very good for my creativity. They've mostly been lovely though (and so has the weather!) so this isn't a complaint! I've managed to write the next chapter of 'Maybe Someday' in between everything else, but it was very slow and awkward and does need an insane amount of editing before it can be posted.

But - right now I'm getting more and more excited because the wonderful lillianmorgan is coming to visit me over the weekend. ::bounces:: It's even more exciting since she'll be the first LJ-person I'll ever meet in person. :) Prepare for long rambly posts come monday...

Since I'm here I thought I'd do a bit of pimping too:

If you haven't already, please go sign up for summer_of_spike - or if you're not the creative type make sure you friend the community to make sure you'll have a whole summer full of Spikey goodness.

Also started reading two new WIPs. Ten Years After by curiouswombat (Speakr's wife) is a Dawn-centric fic that speculates on how her life turned out ten years after Sunnydale. Have a look, it'll be worth your while! frimfram has just started posting her first fic (although she is ridiculously accomplished and she writes absolutely beautifully) The Other Side of the Tracks. It's Spike and Dru just after his turning, with a promise of Arthur Conan Doyle in future chapters! Just go read!

I guess the problem is that there's not a lot to write when things are going well - which is good really! :)

And I *love* summer - I don't like it too hot, but I'll take it over rain and chill any day. Only now of course half my clothes don't fit...

Little Miss M is 6 1/2 and in Year 1. School doesn't actually stop until the end of July - this is just their summer-halfterm. Impish Girl is 3, but will be 4 on the 19th! Must plan party...

And yes I've signed up for summer_of_spike - I remembered an old, dusty little plotbunny. It'll be interesting to see where it goes.
