Q: Has it got any opera in it?
A: Love! Betrayal! Death! Aliens! Mad science! Dystopia! Singing!
Q: It doesn't sound TOO boring. I'll try to stay awake.

We are but $224 away from driving me to write something short, possibly something silly and meme based. You're effectively hiring me to be your ghostwriter for a short story, something you've always wanted to see written...
...maybe something like this.

All right, some serious talk here. My Kickstarter is almost over. If we hit the next stretch goal, I'll write a smartass meme-based short story which might be called Slasher!!! on Ice.* The stretch goal is $2500. We're at $2019.

Anyway, I had plans to get a bunch of surprise book extras done (to send out as PDFs), but I'm not gonna get there. The next actual thing I'm gonna write for the KS is a blog on Gothic musicals/operas, because that's the sort of nerdery that makes me happy.

I'm getting ready to start the Kickstarter for my new novel, House of Masks, on Tuesday. Buhhh...nervous, of course. I have a heavy schedule of promo set up, on the theory that I need to write a bunch of this stuff anyway for long-term marketing and other use, so why not now?

Yesterday went to the Puffs show at the Straz in Tampa, the end of our season tickets for the Jobsite theater company.
First we went to Dracula's Legacy (a wine bar) and had an excessive number of small plate things, all good, and silly Drac-themed cocktails.

What do you want to share today?
I had lots of things I wanted to share yesterday but I'm running a blank right now, because my brain is going, "You're promoting everyone else again and not yourself." So: SIIIIIGH.
One of my happy places is gothic horror.
