Once again, I’m in the lull between projects, and I spent most of it in the usual way: catching up on some correspondence, maintaining my marketing database, and getting mss in the mail–well, some queries, anyway.
By the end of the week, I worked my way around to a very quick read-through of "Wet Work," the story which I plan to use as a springboard into the next novel project. I’ve not done this kind of thing before. I wound up reading it a little differently, with an eye toward continuity with the novel. Turns out there are some disconnects. So now I have to decide if I should adjust the novel to conform to the short story, or the other way around. Interesting challenge.
But first, I have to work on another rewrite–something that just came up. More later.
Write Club update: Nice personal note from Escape Clause. Response time, about five weeks.
And I’m out.
