Woke up feeling unusually peppy. Too tired yesterday for a bagel run, I made it today -- but Sketch was too tired to ride shotgun. It's about a half hour round trip, and he was just getting up when I returned. Did the morning dog ritual and now I wait for coffee to finish brewing.
Maybe one reason I feel so good is that yesterday I did a leisurely reading of LAST RIGHTS, trying to pretend I didn't write it. (It's only 136 pages.) Very satisfying. I am proud of it. However, if a reader doesn't want to think, just wants entertainment, well, I understand this is not the right book because the characters discuss some serious issues, inviting the reader's silent opinion.
My September project is putting the two CJ novels together as a single work, "CJ." Requires a bit of tweaking in LAST RIGHTS to eliminate redundant stuff, but stuff important if you haven't read the first volume.
What to do today?
