Meantime
What am I doing in the meantime while I wait on the next round of proofs? Writing.
I know there are probably things I should be doing to prepare for my book’s publication. I’ll put some thought into that this weekend. A lot of times people will say, “This is no excuse, but…” Well, in my case, this totally an excuse. And kind of a lame one, at that: work is taking up most of my energy these days and I just don’t have it in me to spend several additional hours on planning.
To make at least some marginally worthwhile use of my time, I’m still getting up at the same early hour every day and writing a new book. So far, so good. It’s already taken some interesting side roads I didn’t expect. I have a feeling when it’s complete I’ll need to do some serious editing to make sure it’s cohesive, but that’s down the road. For now, at least I’m doing something productive.
