In brief

Posted on | 2 years ago, in the evening | No Comments

I made that deadline, I’ll have you to know. Nearly drove myself bananas doing it, and ultimately rewrote 14,000 words of a 35,000-word project, in addition to the other changes. Now, of course, the weight is lifted and I’ve been going nuts catching up on all the little things that I let slide while my days were otherwise occupied.

Since Friday I’ve done laundry, cleaned house, seen a movie, gone grocery shopping, written some important correspondence, arranged several more appearances, two more radio/podcast interviews, answered a whole lot of email that had been sitting around in ye old in-box, and gone to lunch with a couple of friends (followed by some much-needed retail therapy). In short, I’m still playing catch-up, a bit.

I’m still writing on Hellbent too, though I doubled back and reorganized/removed some words, leaving me with a net total of only a few hundred — not enough to document, in my opinion. I’ll wait until I have at least a thousand to report. Less that that feels like the waste of a good graphic.

Tonight I’ll sit around with it and noodle. But not right now. Right now, my secret weakness is coming on TV (America’s Funniest Videos yes I know shaddup shaddup shaddup) and I’m going to grab a glass of wine and indulge … with a notepad beside me, in case I figure out exactly how to pitch my next Clockwork Century project. Hey, sometimes I find puppy videos and clips of pinata-whackers gone awry to be inspiring.
