It’s snowing

What is wrong with this benighted country? It’s snowing! It’s April. Spring in this poxy hemisphere. It’s warmer back home in Sydney where it’s Autumn. I hates it! Snow!!! Aaaargghh!!!!!!

In other news John Green is silly with his friends over here. I knew they didn’t get any actual writing done when they got together. Now there’s proof.

I’m interviewed by E. Lockhart and reveal that I cannot write song lyrics.

And, um, it’s still snowing. I’m going back to bed. Wake me when the snow’s gone.

    Snow in spring is just wrong. I think the weather’s being crazy everywhere.

    I write a fantasy writing newsletter and always include a publisher spotlight. I got a request to do one on an Australian publisher. Do you happen to know somewhere on the web I can find a list of some?

    It was 80 degrees here two days ago and they’re forcasting snow for tonight. Um, yeah. Kansas is pretty messed up, along with the rest of the US weather, apparently. I like the snow, though. Its pretty!

    this probably won’t make you feel any better, but it’s supposed to be 37 degrees (F) here in texasland. That’s almost cold enough to snow. furthermore, i did not bring a sweatshirt home with me. yay! not.

    I live in Michigan, so we get lake-effect weather. So over our entire winter break, it was mid-sixties. Then it randomly got to where the wind-chill was 20 below zero. and then it was warm again, and now it’s snowing. People were wearing shorts and flipflops over the weekend. Now they’re wearing parkas. >.

    Fabulous weather here in San Francisco. You frequent the wrong coast, dear. (We are also closer to Sydney.)

    Just be glad you’re not in Michigan’s upper peninsula – as of yesterday they’ve received three feet of snow with more on the way. That’s just wrong…
