Rather interesting week. Three paying jobs kind of landed in my lap: artist-in-residence for a weekend in June, a manuscript review (I was recommended by an editor I know who doesn’t do speculative stuff), and a non-fiction biography (novella length). I was working on the book on courage last week, and it should be off to the publisher by the end of the month, assuming the detective I’m working with gets his end of things done. Also did some work for an editing client.
No new words from me…BUT! I’m passing off The Shadow Spy’s Daughter to a French literature professor (retired) who grew up in Lyon, for critical feedback on the realism of the French and Resistance elements of the book, so I’m pretty excited to ensure that the details are correct (or fix them if they’re not). He’s doing the service for free because he’s a fan!
