Of jewels rare and old, and coaches filled with gold

I'm afraid there's not much to see here, as I make a dash for the end of the book. Insert Snapshot of The Author tipped forward in her chair, fingers on the keyboard, glaring at the screen

(It's funny, Agent of Change was written very much at a dash, and so was Conflict of Honors.  Carpe Diem wanted to dash -- indeed, we did dash, and wrote a whole wrong book.  So, then we had to write the correct book, but at a slower pace, and paying close attention to the rules we'd laid down in the previous two books.   Continuity is hard.  It was then, I think, that we got into the habit of thinking things out in-between the writing, and things went from dash to dogged.)

So!  What're y'all doing or thinking about or reading that's fun and interesting?

I'm thinking about how the phrase "the anatomy of water" might become a poem. And am reading Cheryl Strayed's book Wild, which so far seems like Eat, Pray, Love -- in hiking boots. I hope it is better, I couldn't make it through Eat, Pray, Love.
