PROGRESS REPORT: WEEK ENDING SEPTEMBER 3, 2022

 WELL...

My Editor's Hat

I'm still on Chapter 10 of SOLITAIRE 2: THE AGENDA. I did make it past the 16,000+ word point before I stopped everything thinking it would be better to do some Editing in case My Friendly Neighborhood Beta Proofreader needed any help while she recovers from hip surgery.

HOWEVER...

While she knows all the details far better than I do, the short version is that some complication(s?) was/were encountered, which forced Nancy Hansen to postpone the operation until sometime next year at the earliest.

BUT—

I still have to honor the editing commitments I made thinking that would be all I might have a chance to do right now before I can get back to writing.

So back to the computer!

Hope your Labor Day weekend is going well.

Take care.

STAY SAFE!😷

And I'll see you around the Internet.

PROGRESS REPORT: WEEK ENDING SEPTEMBER 3, 2016

Okay. Got the first draft of what will eventually be HUGH MONN, PRIVATE DETECTIVE:
VOLUME 3 back from my friendly neighborhood beta/proofreader Nancy Hansen.
This consists of the first three chapters and the opening paragraphs of Chapter 4.
Still can't say at this point whether or not this case will be either the opening tale or the entire book like CATCH A RISING STAR turned out to be.
Right now, I don't even have a title for the caper, but I do feel that over 5700 words is a good start.
Not sure how much work I'll get done within the next 24 to 48 hours either, depending upon what former hurricane former tropical storm Hermine does.
Guess that's part of the creative process too, but who looks forward to bad weather???

In any event, have a great week and I'll see you around the Internet.
