news, posts, ets ceteras, I HAVE A TITLE

swan_towerI'm drowning in revisions right now (due Monday; I'm almost done; I just need my brain to keep working a few days more), but I'm surfacing long enough to share a few things.
First: YOU GUYS YOU GUYS YOU GUYS I FINALLY HAVE A TITLE. The sequel to A Natural History of Dragons will be called The Tropic of Serpents.
(Now I just need to go put that phrase in the book somewhere.)
Next, story sale! To the charity anthology Neverland's Library, which will be funded through Kickstarter, and 50% of whose profits will go to First Book. The story in question is "Centuries of Kings," based on several Chinese and Japanese folktales.
Finally, I have a couple of posts up in different places, that I hadn't yet linked here. One is over at Darkeva's blog, talking about how I developed the habit of choosing music for a story while working on the original draft of Lies and Prophecy. The other is my biweekly post at BVC, talking about how folklore adds another later to the world around you.
Time for me to go work some more on revising The Tropic of Serpents. (I am going to be using the title incessantly for a little while, now that I have it to use.)

Or a really lethal drink in a very seedy bar.
