It’s fast.”“Orange and black are a bit garish for you, Nanna.”“The color clashes with my red riding gear, but the Screaming Viking’s only color is orange.”“I’m wearing orange. I want a go on it.”“Sharing and peddling produces joy. I regret; I must say no.”Yggdrasil screams, “That wasn’t my fault.”She…See More

"Looking forward to reading it. It is now on my kindle. I'm a little sad that I won't be reading a paper version, because I would enjoy having that cover siting on my table inticing me to put down my computer and read."

Hi, Alice. Thanks for adding me! Looking forward to following your work.

Check, check, and check!  Well, except for vanilla-biscotti coffee and crème de pirouline rolled wafers, but on the important points, ready to get underway!  Thanks for the good wishes.  There's nothing in life like good friends and a close family!

Thanks for stopping by Alice! By chance, are you an artist on Deviant art? If so, I'd like to check it out!

But of course, Milady!  Your request does me honor.  You must be enjoying Scribblers' Den.  The initial impulse is to ask how I'm doing, but of course, all I've done was open the door.  It's you guys who came in that are "doing," and let me tell you, you're doing great!

At 8:09am on October 2, 2014, Sela Carsen said…

Thank you! And nice to meet you. :)

I'm currently slated to write my Steampunk trilogy starting in Jan 2015. I want to have the first two finished and polished before I start hitting "publish" in April/May so I have time to finish the third one and put it out June/July. Busy, busy!

I'm doing NaNo, too! Friend me at SelaCarsen.

Thank you ever so much for the befriendment. Please do give our melodic mischief a listen if you would be so kind. Regards!

Welcome to our outpost in the Aether. Reality here is flexible. Make of it what you will. Poke around & explore. Read, post and be read. Checkout the forums for like minded citizens or join a group or four. You are sure to find something that contributes to your reality. Have fun.
Cheers,
