Hiding in the Holiday

So, yeah. Long weekend. Lots of time to write (sort of). Thanksgiving was as nice as could be expected. I ate 4 pieces of pie. OK. It was five. But it was worth it. I wrote in painful fits and starts. But I think now I've got the first 3 chapters of Scandal in better order. I have the MS-so-far printed out and will start reading it later tonight to see if I've fixed it. I want that proposal in my agent's hands soon. I want to start full bore on Magellan's Witch by December.

Yesterday I finished a vampire book that was OK. The style was ala MaryJanice Davidson, but not as well done. It was OK. Not a keeper, though. I've started reading Elizabeth Kostova's The Historian.

My son and I finished Stroud's Ptolemy's Gate. The ending surprised me. I'm still not sure what I think. Except, of course, that I highly recommend the entire series.

Whew. No more fun with images. That was too hard. And forget about links, I'm too exhausted from this.
