Leap Day Laptop
I can’t help thinking it’s no coincidence that my laptop stopped working on February 29th: It’s the last “screw you” from a bad month.
But in fairness, it’s also a first world problem. I still have a tablet, which I’d intended to only use when away from home and electricity. I also still have a Mac laptop, effectively my desktop computer because it’s allergic to batteries. As is often the case with modern society, we shouldn’t complain-but will anyway.
Anyway, that means it’s March, which means my pause in promotion is over. I’ll let you know the results later, but meanwhile … buy my books!
Postscript: Just after I wrote this, at about 1:30 a.m. March 1st, I received a rejection e-mail for Radio Red. This tells us two things: Editors are overworked, and things aren’t looking up for March.
If your keyboard stops working, there are certain things you don't want to look down and see.
