Oh what a Manic Monday this is!
Three - count 'em THREE - deadlines this week! Oh, and a car appointment. And a Skype conference for the newest Broad Universe podcast: Broadly Speaking!
And some horse time!
Anyway, some Important Stuff You Should Know!
Keep your eye on the Bad-Ass Faeries Official Website. :) There's some nifty free stuff there, like wallpaper and fiction! In fact, watch for a fun little flash by Christy and me starring Cameron and Roy from our "Party Crashers" short story in Just Plain Bad!

I am now the proud editor of an anthology along with the fabulous Kate Kaynak!
We even have an official Call for Submissions. :) Here it is:
Call for Submissions for the anthology UnCONventional
We're looking for stories that take place at fantasy/sci-fi conventions or other gatherings in which the convention/conference itself is just the cover for something supernatural or fantastic. Imagine time travelers using a steampunk con to cover their attempt to open a portal to return to their own times, werewolves holding a beauty pageant at a dog show, or vampires holding a treaty summit at Dragon*Con.
Suggested Length: 3,000-7,000 words. Up to 10,000 words is possible, but it will be a HARD sell.
Due Date: July 1st, 2011
Editors: Kate Kaynak and Trisha Wooldridge
Submission Guidelines: Please email your submissions to us at: editor@SpencerHillPress.com.
Put your story into the BODY of the email (no attachments, please!) and put "UnCONventional" in your subject line along with the title of your story. Legalese: We can only accept previously unpublished stories. Please do not used licensed characters or any trademarked or copyright-protected material without written permission in advance of submission (This is NOT the place for fanfic). Contributor compensation will include a $10 advance paid upon publication, a contributor copy of the paper version, a royalty percentage split between all contributors, and, of course, bragging rights. Stories should be appropriate for adult and teen readers (age 14 and up); please, no explicit sex or graphic violence!

I'm also blogging with the Worcester Bloggers!
Ok, so I've got a whole one post up, but more will come. I promise. Many will be pretty horse pictures. Other stuff will be food-related. :) I'll try to keep it all fun!

I'm looking for advertising for the Bay State Equine Rescue Wine, Beer & Liquor tasting booklet. :) Get your products in front of eating and drinking horse lovers! Contact me for rates and details.
Advertise AND save horses. :) You know you want to! And you know I'll be begging you again in 4 months for the Blogathon if you don't. <3

Next Manic Monday's post will be the first ever Broadly Speaking podcast. It will feature interviews with Gail Z. Martin, Jennifer Pelland, and Morven Westfield about the writing in regards to Faith and Fear.
It will be cool!
Tune in. :)

It is very cold in MA and my feet are only finally warming up entirely after a day of hanging out with horses. A stomped-upon foot feels painfully strange as it gains more and more feeling. The same for a poor typing hand that was squished between a door and a horse butt. That is me; and I am Tired.
So, that's all the news your getting.
Happy Monday!
