And welcome to Tuesday!
A rather productive evening here at the desk. I finished revising an article on dealing with slush piles. Finished revisions to the story that's being resubmitted to Cicada. Gave a quickie once-more-over to another story that is heading to Argosy. (Competition for Argosy is about to get very stiff. The market announcement was just made on the SFWA newsgroups.)
On the fanzine front, Sleight of Hand is looking very good indeed. It still needs a bit of going over before it's ready, but I expect production in a couple of weeks. Honest. Would I lie?
The first draft of Baby Snooks is off to the editor so I should have a few days before that comes back. I still have some more writing to do, but it progresses and I feel good about tonight's production.

I have a pie in the oven. No, seriously.
Okay, it's a Sara Lee pie. But still--doesn't cooking a pie mean I've gone domestic? I have to admire Pretty Maggie's persistence in slowly bringing me out of the wilds and dark caves and into the light of domesticity. It's taking some getting used to, but I don't mind the least bit.
And the pie is blueberry. Mmmmmmm.

I'm a little disappointed with the Luc Besson movie, Wasabi, that I picked up recently. It suffers from a very poor dubbing job, and it lacks some of the intensity of mood that his previous films have had (yes, even The Fifth Element. I've only seen about forty minutes of it so far, so mayhaps it will pick up. Jean Reno's character has just met his 19-year old daughter for the first time, so things may improve.
I'll stand by Luc Besson, however, as one of the greatest filmmakers living today, and Jean Reno as one of the best actors around.
What the heck, let's make those today's links. First is Bienvenue sur le site officiel de Luc Besson (or search through Google for "Luc Besson" then hit the translation button. Next up is The World of Jean Reno (warning, this is a Tripod page, so expect a couple of pop-ups).

Okay, not my best or longest entry ever tonight. Been busy most of the night, and it's time to sign off. More on the morrow.
Cheers!
