Boy, I sure can spell creatively… yeesh… but I progressed really nicely for one weekend. I won’t be able to do much next weekend, as I have Roller Derby bout recaps to do and then mother’s day. I don’t have a mother, but my wife is one, so we’re taking her out. The next weekend I will I hope to have the first alpha pass done by the first week of June.
Okay, I don’t want to be all arrogant and stuff, but I am really proud of some of what I wrote. Right now, it’s not the best book; it needs some work, but man… there are some parts I laughed out loud at. Some I cried a little. And some will never see the light of day like a hair clog in a shower drain.
“I wrote what…? Yee…”
I have managed to get a little under halfway of the actual first alpha before I do another pass of the second alpha. Once that’s fixed, onto Beta 1 and my editors, who will attack it with rock and scissors. I hope to have all those done by the end of the summer. Then negotiations with my publisher, and then a Christmas 2013 release I hope by Thanksgiving.
I *should* have some readings for Balticon. I don’t have a schedule yet, but I’ll post one when it becomes finalized.
