I am in the midst of the changes noted in the previous entry. Also, I have taken what is for me a huge step. I've reduced my day job hours to 4 days a week and will now be spending my Mondays writing. I'm still wrestling a bit with how to most effectively do the ghost scenes. Also, I'm worrying that though there are lots of guests, I rarely use them. They're invisible. That, I think, is the least of my problems. However, I can now take some (OK, lots) of pleasure in knowing that Lord Ruin got a 4 star review, which means at least one other person really liked it. I can do this. I can make the Spare an engrossing, sensual story of destiny and love. 'Nuff said. I should go back to writing now.
