Sunny all day, and the high was 83˚F.

A very productive, if frustrating, day. I was up at 5:30 a.m., and by 6 I was writing. I did another 1,779 words on The Night Watchers. the manuscript has reached eighty-five pages. Anyway, I did a bunch of line edits, reformatted everything, the sent it away to my agent and others, and now I will await their ( Read more... )

The cold got here last night. Our low was 37˚F last night, we warmed up to 53˚F, and we're looking at another freeze warning tonight.

I'm missing summer already.

An abysmal day. I think I'm mostly going to leave it at that. I got nothing done that was worth doing, and I didn't make it to McWane.

I did manage to begin reading Bukowski's Hollywood ( Read more... )

Sunny today, except for the huge-ass thunder storm right smack in the middle of the day. Our high was 89˚F, with a heat index of 96˚F. I think we can thank the thunderstorm for it not getting really hot ( Read more... )

Another marvelously sunny day. Our high was 88˚F, though the forecast high was 91˚F.

I was up early and wrote another 1,206 words on "Living a Boy's Adventure Tale." And this afternoon I worked on the MP1. And Spooky says a set of signature sheets has just arrived, so I have to see what book those are for. Offhand, I cannot recall, but I do not ( Read more... )

Sunny, low humidity, high UV rating, and our high temp was 82˚F. It's beginning to feel a little like early summer.

I made an important breakthrough with "Living a Boy's Adventure Tale" this morning. I did not get any work done on MP1. Still, I've had less productive days recently.

This afternoon I watched two episodes of Nova, one on skyscrapers ( Read more... )

A foggy, cloudy morning, and the sun this afternoon. Much like yesterday. Our high was 74˚F.

I'm not going to talk about Russia and the Ukraine. There's nothing meaningful I could say that someone else has not said already.

But I did not work today.

The afternoon's film was Jean-Pierre Jeunet's Alien: Resurrection (1997). I have a strange ( Read more... )

I woke to heavy rain, but, once again, the sun came out later in the day. Our high was 70˚F, cooler than yesterday. It's currently 66˚F.

Another solid work day. I got the layout on Sirenia Digest nos. 192 and 193 finished. That's six issues in three days, and I have never done the likes of that before. I hope I never shall again. And I had a four ( 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... )

Clouds forever. I don't know if it rained or not. I didn't look out a window. I did not raise a shade. Currently, it's 76˚F ( Read more... )
