Juno’s Magic

I like, I don’t like …

smile I like bright, snow-glittering mornings.

But I don’t like icy cold in March.

I love having a new book to translate.

But I don’t like that it’s on an even tighter deadline.
(Or that it’s for an anthology, which means that I have to cut even more
and will earn even less.)

I like readers who leave comments. Even negative ones.
(No really; they are always interesting, and sometimes they even have a point.)

I loathe anonymous comments. Bloody cowards!
(If you’re not sure if your comment is a ‘flame’, don’t post it;
otherwise, make sure the author has a way of getting back to you –
anything else is bloody damn rude.)

I like clean litter boxes for my cats.

I most certainly do not like actually cleaning them.

I love difficult Muses.

But only if they are actually talking to me.

I like dreams, and find even nightmares exciting.

Not so much when they are about me dying
or just screaming my head off in anger with zero results.

I don’t actually mind getting old(er) –
being a fancrone has advantages, and you can’t do anything about it anyway.

But: Why white hair now?
Not silvery or silver, but snowwhite. No fair.

And now I’m going to try and write a bit until the new book arrives. Wish me luck!
