Cleaning up

September 22nd, 2008

So I spent yesterday smoothing out the site. The text should now be consistent overall, I changed the way the links highlight on mouse over, all my contact information is now in one spot - and look over there
<————– there is a page with links to my publishing credits :) I’m anal about going on over and over until it looks like I want it to, and I think for now that I’m happy with it. The only thing that I don’t like is the “Main” and “Publications” links over there, but I am going to make a couple of graphics for them, so the text links will remain for now. Any comments on the site design are welcome.

I also edited my Twitter box so it doesn’t take up so much room. I have it partly so people can have another way to follow my posts as this blog pings Twitter whenever there is a new post.

I had another short story accepted, this one by Ruthie’s Club, titled “Winter Showers.” I also have received 8 rejections this month, which brings my total this year to 27. I currently have 18 stories out.

And in non-writing news, my daughter has the chicken pox. She had recieved one of the shots in the 2 shot series so far, so even though she tends to catch anything like that very severely, she has a mild case with just bumps and itching. She’s quite pleased however that this means she doesn’t have to have the second shot after this!
