Relief
I just turned in both the revisions to Eyes of Crow and the outline for Book 2, Voice of Crow. In a sadistic twist of the calendar, they were both due today.Now I can start thinking about Christmas. It feels like I'm back in college, when I couldn't begin to get into the holiday spirit until after exams and papers were finished.
Monday it's back to work on the vampire novel, the first draft of which I plan to complete by the end of January. I need fifty pages a week to accomplish that goal, which is a stretch but far from impossible, unless I have substantial revisions on Eyes.
Speaking of the vamps, my editor loved my revised proposal and is popping it "upstairs" for approval. I had another proposal get shot down at the higher levels, so it's by no means a done deal. Word won't come back until at least next month, so in the meantime I'll just pretend it's sold and work hard accordingly. I really wish I'd done that last year for Eyes, but I didn't want to jinx the process.
Must go. The Beasts require ritual sacrifice--I mean, dinner.
