Voiceless

All y'all who know me will laugh. I have a cold, and it's a nasty cold, and it's taking away my voice. I told my family to consider themselves lucky for the duration of the laryngitis because they'll get it back in spades when I feel like being vocal again.

So instead I turn to written words. I'd already set aside today to catch up on my beta-reading for the Sugar Quill and I'm on my 4th of 4 chapters from my 4th author. I have all these multi-chapter works now; all I'll be able to handle next submission date is a one-shot or two. No more multis.

Speaking of multi-chapter works: paging [livejournal.com profile] amberdulen...

So sick of coughing.

I might have to cancel massages this week. That makes me sad.



Random song lyrics:
And now here I stand lost in a memory
I see your face and smile

I don't mind losing my voice so long as I don't lose my capacity for words. Two very different things, my dear.

I just finished reading your gift-fic. *sniff* Thank you.

Hope you feel better soon - have some kind of lemongrass and ginger-intensive soup!

You know, I did just that. Mitch brought home vetgetarian Thai Tom Yum soup and it was highly delicious. And highly spicy enough to knock germs away as necessary.

[hugs back]

*clears throat* Yes. Hmm. *cough* Right, yes....

There are now eight books on my to-edit list, if you count the one I'm beta-reading for my sister, and the poor Raven just keeps getting schlocked back to the end of the list. I did manage to get one chapter up in November. I'll try to bump it forward and wrap that all up this month.

I hope you feel better soon. Drink lots of tea with honey.
