Getting ready to leave town

So, last night, Steve and I turned Alliance of Equals, the 19th novel in the Liaden Universe®, in to Madame the Editor at Baen.

This morning, we posted the seventh chapter of Shan and Priscilla Ride Again.  Here's your link.

Tomorrow, we're getting on the Downeaster at Oh Ghod O'Clock, heading for Boston and the first stop on the Lightning Northeast Book Tour in Support of Dragon in Exile.

Today, we still need to do an InfoDump, pack, hand off the keys to the house-sitter -- and I need to clean off my desk.

Why do I need to clean off my desk, you ask?

This is why:






Creativity is messy

Also?  the milk crate in the bottom right of the picture is full of Alliance-related papers, too.

So!  What're you doing today that's fun?

EDITED TO ADD:

OK; that's better
OK; that's better

I stand in awe of you -- your messy desk looks like my desk when it's tidy.

(Some people have the Tidy gene. I realized years ago that I'm not one of them.)

It's funny. I can work with the clutter while the project is progressing, because I know where everything is, and my head's in the book.

After the project's done; I have to straighten the rubbish of the old project away. Can't start a new project out of the mess of the old project. Each mess is unique, I guess....

I can understand that. Unfortunately, I usually have so many projects going on at one time there's no hope for my desk ;/

My desk hasn't been that neat and clean since I first built it.

When is the Nook edition going to be out?

Hardcopies abound but no listing for the Nook yet

I just checked at Baen, and Dragon in Exile is listed as available in EPUB/Nook/Stanza/ format directly from Baen. You might try checking there for yourself if no joy at B & N.
