I
was supposed to have this written and posted for the 2nd. But I have
excuses, a whole pile of them.
I
spent last Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, working a book table at a Comic Con.
Long days and few sales. Sixty thousand people there to look but not to buy.
Sold half as many books as I did the year before. But it was interesting and I re-connected
with a few old contacts.
Then,
besides re-connecting with my wife, I had to get ready for last night. It was
the monthly meeting of our writer’s workshop. Three readings plus the critiques.
If you have never belonged to a workshop you should join one. Just be prepared
to take the comments on your work with a grain of thought. I belong to a group
where I’m the only fantasy writer. I bounce scenes off of them, I wouldn’t try
and run an entire novel past them.
But
they do buy my books.
Today
I’m waiting to hear from a contractor who is supposed to look at replacing a
section of eaves trough before winter clamps down on us. Expecting a cold one
this year. And I have to get ready to take part in a literary festival next
month an hour’s drive from here. Want to launch my latest book there that just
made it into print, Alex in Wanderland.
But first I have to lay hands on a few copies.
I
also suspect the wife is getting anxious to have some action on that list she
has of things I keep putting off.
Must
go now.
