The Rains Came

We are living in a rain forest. Ye gods! Yesterday the weather almost felt like spring. Today, we had snow, slush and this a sh__load of rain. The street is a river and across the street is a lake. Gloom and doom. Bah!

I have found a new way to waste time. Look for cheap airfares on the Net. Try just one more airport, one more airline. Another way to waste time. Redeem Delta Frequent Flier Miles. Two hours on various holds over two days. At least I could sit here and surf the web and download itunes and all that stuff.

World of Mirrors is off to MacMillan New Writing with its new synopsis, a brief bio and all 96,500 words.

When I started thinking about Promiscuous Mode's synopsis, I realized there may be some structural problems. Now bear in mind, 2 agents and one editor have really really liked this book. Anyway, I want to cut 10,000 words and take another whack. Do this in March while I redo the web site. Always too much to do. Life if full. A good thing.

Two blogs I ran across today, which I rather liked:

Check them out. Tomorrow will be my 500th post. Zowie!
