Breathe

The headache hasn't gone away, but it's not as bad right now. My sleep schedule is starting to get back to normal and that may help matters; we'll see. I do like the idea of consecutive one-word post titles that start with B. Maybe I can extend the streak.

No, the breathing I'm thinking of is the kind that comes with a bit of relief. I've edited Lauderdale, I've read it and edited it again. Now it's other peoples' turn to read it, while I sit back and... well... actually, I have a few other ideas I'm working on. But I'm also taking a bit of a break, which I need. And trying to do some other reading as well.

I have nothing else to report. I just like talking about the book. It's like a baby; once you have one you talk about it a lot. Nothing wrong with that.

I like your mock cover. Is that going to be your pen name?

And you are allowed to talk about the book as much as you want. Until you start talking about its diapers and the consistency of things within. Then you've crossed the line.

As one of the other people, I like the cover too. And is that a pen name or a name and occupation. Matthew, Whore. I mean Woore. I say feel free to talk about it too. I printed out my copy in booklet form, so it has a semblance of it's final shape. I'm 1/3 of the way through His Excellency, and should be able to start after that. I'll redouble my efforts.

I think I have a sympathy headache... Hope yours improves more soon! Good luck to all in the editing!

Is it too late to ask for a preview copy of Lauderdale? Since I have classes with assigned reading (computer science class with assigned reading is very strange) I won't be able to go through it as quickly as I might like, but both my wife and I would like to see an "advanced copy." :)
