Saturday had been a planned day off far before the landing of galleys. Steve and I discussed it, and decided that we actually deserved that day off, deadlines or not, so we went south, to a home show, then souther, to the ocean, then bore northwards, stopping to tour that popular tourist attraction Whole Foods, where Cheese was committed, and dark chocolate covered espresso beans were but barely avoided.

Sunday was sit-in-the-living-room-and-proofread-damn-you day. Steve did Conflict of Honors while I finished Scout's Progress and started on Mouse and Dragon. As of this writing, that's three-point-five books down and half a book to go.

Or, graphically:

Pages proofed since March 9:

1125 / 1309


...yes, we are Completely Made of Awesome, thank you.

Remember! Mouse and Dragon eArc now available here. Tell your friends! Tell your office mates! Tell your mom!

Yes, it is. I was prepared to think that turning the three-book omnibus around on a dime was a lot of proofing, then the fourth book landed.

I'm afraid my head's going to explode when I try to remember how to write again.

Speaking of which, could you do me a favor and tell me what the end of the sentence is on page 53 of Halfing Moon's story, 'Moon on the Hills', please? It is in the middle of the page above the break.

"Meanwhile, it was time to go if he was going to hit Boss Sherton's farmer's market before the ......"

Yes, yes, I can probably fill in the blank but I like your words better. :) I have vague feelings there was one place in the 'Halfing Moon' story that lost a bit of text but it can't have been too important as I've re-read it several times now and didn't flag it to ask you.
Thanks muchly.
