So, if you happen to have $1.08 left over on your Discretionary Regency Romance Budget Line, you may be interested in purchasing the MP3 of my story, "The Roman and the Regency" at Sniplits.
The reading is absolutely top-notch, from the snippet I've heard of it (I need to sit down with the longer version, and stifle my absurd nervousness whenever I see/hear my stuff performed). There is a sample available at http://sniplits.com/storiesforauthor.jsp?a=79
That is partially directed at you,
_earthshine_; I don't know if you've noticed, but there's a whole slew of my stuff that can be listened to, rather than read. If you click through to my bio, there's a list of audio stuff, complete with links. Most of it is free from donation-supported podcast magazines--in fact, everything except this most recent story is!
Oh, other news: The cute robot book, AKA, Unplugged: The Web's Best Sci-Fi & Fantasy - 2008 Download (which contains my story "The Girl-Prince") has received a starred review at Publisher's Weekly. I did not get the named shout-out that several of my esteemed colleagues did (yay
beth_bernobich and
tinaconnolly! For example!), but that's okay, there's enough glory from that star to go around.

It's funny, I have a similar deadline (mine's Christmas), and I'm less than 20k from the end. Today, it seems doable. (I could also be crazy.) My new goal in life is not to let a year go by without writing a new book. I'm getting dangerously close this year. Anyway, as a spur to keep momentum going after typing "The End," I've been making myself a little NaNoWriMo-esque spreadsheet for the next year of my life. 300 words a day of new stuff, plus 2 pages of editing/rewriting. AKA, 40 minutes of writing a day. I can do those two things in 20 minutes or less.
The other piece of the spreadsheet is that I have to do ONE minor chunk of "career maintenance" a day. Submit a story, or pimp something I've sold, or... put a story up on Anthology Builder... :) Anything that takes less than 20 minutes counts as One Thing.
