So I went and worked a bunch on the WIP. Did OK. The new chap 3 is closer to what I want. All to the good. Then I broke down and read the 1st three chapters of The Rake, and hell if it isn't pretty damn good! So, then I started freaking about being able to maintain that for the rest of the book. Ok, so then I went and read Shift, and considering how fast I wrote it, it was actually darn OK. I kept thinking, whoa, this could be really cool. Can be, too. I'm hoping tomorrow I'll have time to try to pull together some sort of something or other about Dark Elf and Historical Alpha Man Help Me. (I'm laughing at that, but it's an inside joke, as in totally inside my head and it would be embarassing to explain it to anyone.)

This is me, trying hard to enjoy the moment without spoiling it by freaking out. OK. Moment over. Freaking.
