Long day, no pizza
Tuesday, May 5th, 2009 07:39 pmI got some words written. Which is better than no words written.
That's my story and I'm sticking to it.
Tomorrow is likely to be a No Writing day; Steve and I have an evening speaking gig. Maybe I'll get some longhand in at the day-job.
I'm enjoying the heck out of Edison's Eve, by the way, though the author gets a little carried away by her . . . philosophical differences with Edison. I can see how it might happen, mind you, but she went just a thought too long.
There's an ad for Fledgling in the May Locus -- very cool!
Also, for those who, like me, adore Office Supplies, Steve found me a nice canvas, accordion pleated folder to put the current project in so it can be schlepped back and forth endlessly to the day-job. I had been using pleated cardboard files, but the action of the file against the canvas bag in which I transport the file, my book and lunch up the hill to the library, totally destroys the corners in a matter of weeks. It was a heartbreaker. Well! This baby isn't going to lose any corners during the next ten years. Honestly, this acquisition makes me very, very happy. And! There's a flap that folds over the file that has a plastic window in it. Into that window I have slipped a copy of Agatha Heterodyne and the Amazing Coffee Machine.
Sigh.
Yes.
Happy.
