Clouds most of the day. Ugh. Our high was 84F, with a heat index of 86F.

Work? I spent another couple of hours on the galleys for Bright Dead Star. I hope to finishing with this in the morning. My eyes have gotten so bad that there are times that more than two hours of anything leaves them burning so badly I have to stop for a time. Yeah, I need ( Read more... )

So, at least I managed a little sleep last night, all of it about about 1:30 a.m. (when I woke the night before). I was awake at 5, though, and I was writing by 6 a.m. Oh, wait, the damn weather. Cooler still today. It would have been great chalk gully weather. We made 89F, but it was overcast and there was a cool breeze. Autumn is coming fast, and ( Read more... )

Sunny and cool today, with a high of 82F.

An astoundingly bad day, an utter loss.

Today's film was Ridley Scott's Alien (1979). I was a Freshman in high school in Leeds, Alabama.

Please, if you have not look at the shop recently, consider doing so. New (RARE) books up. Plus Spooky's tie dye. Taxes.

Thank you.

Later Tater Beans,

Sunny today. Our high was 88F.

What the fuck happened today? Oh, the writing. I did 1,074 words on "The Moment Under the Moment. (1994)" Kathryn seems very taken with this story; I don't know what to think. Anyway, as soon as this is done, it's back to The Night Watchers, which I intend to have finished for Subterranean Press by the end of the ( Read more... )

Rainy, but not a bad day. The sun showed it's face from time to time. The high was 78˚F, with the heat index at 80˚F.

I was up at 7 a.m., and I spent another three hours this morning on the line edits for "Living a "Boy's Adventure Tale." That's something like seven hours of editing the thing so far. Anyway, I got it to a point where I was ( Read more... )

I woke to deep gloom this morning (photo below), but about 3 p.m. the sun emerged, in fits and starts. The temperature made it to 76˚F, which is also our current temperature. My office window is open. It's marvelous. Spring is so near. The trees are getting buds.

Another good work day. I did layout, etc. on two more issues of Sirenia Digest, nos. ( Read more... )

A good day. I feel like I got a lot done.

And yes, it was rainy and dark, but I still got a lot done. Our high was only 53˚F.

The morning and early afternoon was spent editing and laying out two issues of Sirenia Digest (nos. 186 and 187). Spooky is mailing out 186 as I write this, and 187 will go out next Monday, February 28th. And then there ( Read more... )
