ellenmillionOh, holy hell. I had a whole entry nicely written and formatted, clicked the wrong button, came back, and when LJ asked if I wanted to restore, it restored the LAST entry I posted. BAD LJ. NO COOKIE.
Business as Usual
Wednesday is the last day to submit 'Bard' themed work for EMG-Zine! We're very, very low on artwork for this one, especially, though we'll have some very nice features for you. I know you've got artwork of people playing musical instruments, please consider submitting them! http://emg-zine.com/guidelines.php
New work is going up at Torn World! I posted my recent story to my journal - feel free to comment here or at the site.*
The new backend at Torn World is in place and going smoothly so far. The nicest thing about it that it allows contributors to watch their pieces in real-time... they know it's safely there, what the status is, and can see all the comments immediately (those comments the canon board WISHES to share, that is). Changes can be made, and are tracked, and the canon board can even future vote if they know they will approve something once their comments are addressed. It's a sweet, sweet system. (She says humbly.)
Next Sketch Fest: 17-18 September!
Next Muse Fusion: 21 September! (Equinox!)
I am very low on Steam Dreaming coloring books in stock! I have re-ordered, but will not have them on hand until early October. Ursula's 2010 calendar is marked down to $5, as is Rachel Anderson's! Older calendars are also at $5, but if you ask nicely, I'll throw one in free with any order over $10. Note that I'm nearly out of Pathfinders Decks.
Proofs for the anthology should be in my hand this week! Eek! And yay!
Is that all my business news? I thought I had more...
Art and Authoring
I have ordered TWELVE new micron pigma 005 pens. I will probably use them all up on the piece I'm working on now. For ME and no one else.
I have stories in mind, too - I have one that was twiddling along until I realized it was written from the wrong POV. Here's this character I've been trying to make sympathetic (and failing), when all I had to do was show this story that's already well-plotted out through their eyes! Bingo! I smell a re-write in my near future.
But first, I have to finish ONE more story before the end of day tomorrow.
Other Slaving
Two websites to finish at the start of this week, and a big drafting project for the end of the week, and a rather major future web project in the not-so-distant works. Negotiating some logo work, too.
Busy Ellen is busy.
*But please do comment, because while I have a healthy self esteem generally, resounding silences make me feel like a terrible hack and like I should give up writing and burn my keyboard. And that would be messy and the cat hates the smoke detector noise. THINK OF THE KITTENS!

She said that she had already submitted one, so I told her that she could submit two. :) I have a picture of someone playing the flute backwards... >_< Did you get the one I had submitted months ago? I never know because there is no "thanks for your submission" e-mail thing.

RE: Steam Dreaming: Awesome that it is selling out so fast! :) I need to figure out how many I want...
RE: Micron pens: All mine are dieing!!! I need to replace most of my colored ones, but I really don't wanna go to the cheapest/closest place to get them, because that is my old work place... >_< The second closest place is not in my good graces either...
