heywhawho?
yeah, sh.
It's almost done. I can nearly smell it. After my laptop crashed and took my book with it - at least, the part that was supposed to be Book the First with most of all it's updates and revisions and edits and such - I can now finally say I'm back where I was: really, almost, damn-near done.
Except now I back up with almost abnormal frequency for fear of losing it again. What's worse is that I'd preached to many people who had lost files, of the need to forever backup, each time chiding myself in the far recesses of my head to do the same, next chance I got.
pff
Much has happened, I will be returning far more frequently to these virtual pages.
Incidentally, in case you'd not noticed, check out The White List over on archer904's site, a forever updated list of blogs by writers, editors and agents from all walks of life, aisles of genre, marks of pen. While I have published some, I will wait until my first book is out before I recommend my own self to it.
The National Book Fest now includes literary greats such as Leeza Gibbons. I will simply refrain from political comment, just this once, as that seems to speak sufficiently for itself.
I've got to finish unpacking things, we returned just last night from a week in Maine. I have library books to return, laundry to do, books to edit, read . . .
I'm re-reading Mists of Avalon. Again. I love that book. I've begun the Merlin series by T.A. Barron, as I'm still looking for YA books about the main character's journey of learning/acquiring magic and power to help guide my own writing, but MoA still does it so much better. If only for the richness of the setting, the places, the smells and people. I'm not looking to be as thick a read as that - yet - but I do hope to include some of that.
And food. I think we're all craving Indian tonight.
Cheers,
