Hooray! The contracts for my Seekrit Projekt just came in the mail! So it’s finally official. I’ll be writing a fantasy trilogy based on the ___ ________, from _______ ______ _____. The blanks can be filled in on or shortly after the first weekend in August, when certain announcements are made at ___ ___. Full disclosure. [...] Needed a way to rearrange scenes on rewrite. Got one – for now! I get a new book proposal out. Hopefully money coming in will ensue. Gee, I hope not. And I can’t literally be. I was sound asleep and Emma Dog roused me crying to go outside; that’s the only reason I’m up and around at this Godless hour. When Emma wants out, I let her out.
