A week of editing


Yes, it’s good to finish one project before starting another, so I put a focussed week in on editing the music industry memoir I’m working on, which is going really well, but it is a big project. Also, I start teaching Novel Surgery on Monday, so I did my prep for that course. I’m really looking forward to teaching it. It will be a different experience to teach online.

A Week of School Break!


No Family School this week. Did get out cross country skiing for a few hours, but that is the last of it: snow is staring to go, and social isolation is ramping up. Did edit for a client and had a virtual meeting to review the work. He is happy with the direction his memoir is going!

Busy week, but no writing


Yep. Schools, restaurants and public gatherings are shut down this week to prevent a massive rise in COVID-19 cases overwhelming our hospitals, so I’ve gone back to teaching–family-style. Fun, busy, but no writing. Weird to be living through a SF-predicted tipping point in my lifetime, though it’s not as though something like this wasn’t foreseeable.

A week of editing


No new fiction this week–all editing jobs. I created a nonfiction proposal for the biography I’m working on, revised the Dinosaur treatment as per client’s requests, edited a continuing client’s short story, put together a contract for a potential new editing client, and blurbed a novel as per a publisher’s request. Whew!
