So, the weekend

[rolanni]

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!

Re Anne's death, from Carpe Diem...

...even the Scouts, appealed to in need, had sent broadbeam across the stars that Scout Captain Val Con yos'Phelium was required immediately at home, on business of his Clan. So had Val Con come, too, in remarkably short time, shaky with too many Jumps made one after another, to stand and weep with the rest of them at his foster mother's bier.

So it seems that Val Con had made Scout Captain. Old enough, perhaps?

Ah, that seems reasonable. Thanks. It also makes my choice of next book to reread easy, Carpe Diem it is.

Still hoping for more of Nova someday, and the children.

There's a wee glimpse of the children in Half Moon (the latest chapbook). At least one is standing tall as a pilot... (and I'll stop there, before someone complains about spoilers).

Agreed -- we need more Nova, and I would love to see the Er Thom/Anne tale get filled out a bit more, too... but in the meantime, there's Ghost Ship to look forward to, and Carousel Tides (if you don't mind slipping out of the Liaden Universe (r))
