Am all signed up for my classes for Winter Wonderland. In a nutshell, after next weekend, my body will be very tired and my brain will be very full.

I have been sitting at computers WAY too much since Horror Academy closed. I so need this. :: rubs hands in anticipation ::

:: does happy Lizzie Project dance ::

(Of course, now I'm trying to picture any kind of happy dance being remotely appropriate to Lizzie. It's not working very well.)

For two or three years, one of the "hopefully this will come back into print" books on my Amazon list has been Lucinda Hawksley's Lizzie Siddal: Tragedy of a Pre-Raphaelite Supermodel (which I've also seen with a title something like "Original Supermodel").

Well, I just discovered this blog, which has an interview with Hawksley, and by following the link there have discovered that it's actually BEEN back in print, and wasn't matching up with my Wish List item because it has yet another new title!.

And now it will be on its way to my house next week! \o/

In the meantime, I have decided that this just isn't something I can write on the computer, so I've printed out Lizzie's poems and the bits and pieces I had written so far and put them in the zippered leather binder that I usually use to keep all my costume designer admin stuff together for a given show. Cleaned all the Barnum stuff out of it (hey, it's only been a year and a half!) and will now be schlepping it around with me. Let's see if a little tactile use of an actual pen will help kickstart this thing again...
