I did get the whole manuscript marked up yesterday, which is one definition of "done". Unfortunately, despite spending about four hours at it, I only got sixty pages of alterations typed into a file to send off to production. I know it gets a little bit less bad somewhere past the 150 page mark (due, I hope, to the ms actually being cleaner

Happy thanksgiving! Wish you were here! Good luck with the manuscript stuff.

Hey! I'm here for you. Okay, probably only for the couple of minutes it takes to type this, but one does what one can.

I just started Heart of Stone. [EDIT: Don't ask me why my first draft read "House of Stone". Maybe my subconscious was trying to turn it into a medical drama....] As of Chapter 5, it's a great read so far! I love the fingerprints bit. No, that's not all I love, it's just the detail that popped into my head while I'm blathering. Oh! I need to upload my "Brian finds proof that Borders can so stock Catie's books" photo for your amusement. Or horror. Whatever. Now if I crop out the "Brian" part of the photo, the horror level drops significantly. I'll have to consider that.

Even though you're an ex-pat and I'm not sure of the availability of turkey in Ireland, I hope you enjoy Thanksgiving...at least conceptually...and that your other LJ buddies don't turn out to be a bunch of slackers! :)
