Yes, leading up to Christmas, I didn’t get a ton of stuff done–a few more book reviews. I’ve also decided which book I will work on next (it was a toss up between a sequel to the WWII novel or a near-future SF) and decided to go with the sequel because I want to set it Lyons and it looks more and more like I will visit there this spring, so I want to do the research and some pre-planning leading up to the trip. Part of that includes writing a grant application because, money–why not? I’ve been collecting a bunch of books I want to read in preparation, so I’ll dive into those.
