Updates

Worked on the final report for my grant–if you don’t submit a final report, you can’t apply for another grant. I have everything done except incorporating the last few edits recommended by my editor, and it will be no problem to finish this week (it’s due Friday).

Science Fiction 5/5

The Cannibal Club must decide whether to get together one more time after the job that split them up, to bust one of their former members from an isolated prison on the Kuiper Belt, based on the conflicting stories—lies?—from a kid who purports to be his son. Rollicking good fun! A complex plot that twists to a satisfying ending.

“Finished” the bio I was working on and sent it to my beta readers. Of course, then I got more details. But I can add them at the revision stage.

Picked up a new editing client.

My grant final report is due at the end of the month, but I think I can have it done this week. Lots of stuff moving forward!

Fantasy 3-/5

Makeda, trying to live on her own without her twin, no longer has magic—which she needs, if she is to rescue her demigod father. This one is pretty surreal, and I found its style to be a barrier between me and the story, so I had a hard time getting into it.

Got most of the way through my novel revisions, then had to switch to a biography I’m writing because I have a deadline.
