msagaraCan those of you who made the decision to go for a paid account tell me what the practical differences are (I can read the FAQ, and have, but it seems from FAQ reading that there's very little practical difference).
In other news, I'm working on the revisions for my first Luna novel at the moment; I've just finished rereading everything of relevance in SUN SWORD in preparation for the next leg of HOUSE WAR. I've written thousands of words on the weekend -- none of it with any commercial value whatsoever. That would be the poetry. 1 of the 6 cycles is actually word perfect, imho; but the rest, not so much.
And the correct response, when told -- by me, let me hasten to add (for Larry's sake if no one else's) -- "I'm working on poetry" is "I'm sorry to hear that." Or, "poor you." "Who died?" is also acceptable.

Hi!
Date: 2004-06-24 01:00 pm (UTC)Did I enjoy the reread? Not as much as I'd hoped to (there are one or two inconsistencies which are a real pain, and which would not have been a problem if I'd stuck with the originally planned structural approach for HOUSE WAR. It's sort of like... reading page proofs, but without any ability or opportunity to correct any of the mistakes you find ...
Melanie Rawn said elsewhere on-line that she hated to reread her own books, and I confess that after a very long two weeks doing same, and making notes, I'm frazzled enough to have some sympathy for that position.
I would much, much, much rather reread your 5 than mine; next time I consider this, can we just swap and make copious notes of -each other's- work? Hmmm?
(How are the kids?)
