It's been one hell of a fourth quarter workwise, not to mention a busy personal schedule, so I haven't updated here in quite some time. I will try to update more this weekend, as I will actually have the time to do so! :)
Quick Facts and Figures in JoncWorld:
--On Chapter 34 of The Persistence of Memories revision, a little over halfway through the novel proper, and about the halfway point of the trilogy proper. Things are looking good.
--Due to frequent technical incompetence and end-of-rope frustration, we no longer have Dish Network. On the positive side, we have Netflix and a large collection of DVDs (not to mention my ridiculous mp3 collection) to keep us entertained visually and aurally. We may get some other cable or satellite at a later time, but for now we're just going to let it go for now.
--Why yes, I do plan on submitting the trilogy (well, A Division of Souls for starters) to Angry Robot's Open Door submission window, why do you ask? This weekend's writing project is to work on the Query Letter/Synopsis and first few chapters prepared, and the submission will hopefully come soon after.
--Over halfway done with Mark Lewisohn's Beatles tome Tune In...and recently bought the twice-as-long Extended Version as well. He's done quite the great job...it's well worth checking out. And from a writer's perspective, I find he's written the book in the exact style I would want to write in for Walk In Silence, once I get to it.
Okay, back to revision! :)
