The long-awaited lull
As you can tell from the sidebar, I'm working on* the proposal for the Aspect of Crow Book 3, Wings of Crow, which means I finally handed in Voice of Crow to my editor, only two days past deadline (which, everyone assures me, does not count as "late").Then there was World Fantasy Con. Then there was Election Day(s). Then there was the Book Fair. And now...
The lull. The sweet, sweet lull, in which I might actually clean a sink or two. I have a To-Do List that measures in feet, not inches.
Lots of little tasks, such as getting ready for two booksignings and trying to set up several more. Such as sending thank-you gifts to various departments of my publisher to show my appreciation for all their hard work. Such as, oh, heck, why not--reading a book or two.
But I welcome the long To-Do list, because for the entire month of October, it was very short:
1. Finish book
2. Finish website
The lull ends tomorrow, when I start putting the Wings of Crow proposal on paper. It's due December 15, which gives me a month. I might even try that First Draft in 30 Days method again.
Now about those sinks...
*"working on" = tossing around ideas in my head until something feels right
P.S.: Look! It's Chapter Two of "The Wild's Call"
