Screen Enemies of the American Way went off Monday. It arrived Tuesday. I answered a question Wednesday (and finally got around to e-mails about marketing suggestions and such). It’s done. And should be out around the beginning of the year. I feel very good about that.
•Apparently my Thanksgiving vacation, even with all the indexing, was very refreshing. Despite some occasional snags, I managed to stay up with all my eHows and keep the pace that I aspire to (roughly one an hour—I can do some faster, but it always averages back out).
•The 11th and 12th Applied Science stories, Who Watches the Watchmen and Cover Stories, are shaping up well. The improvement in the latter is really satisfying: It’s the final story in the series so I need to find the right note to end on, and I’m slowly inching toward that.
•I’ll be covering Raleigh City Council next Tuesday for the Raleigh Public Record.
•Did not find the time to work on Brain From Outer Space. But I have four weeks to go in December, so hopefully I’ll get more done.
•Mailed one magazine query off.
•Contacted a couple of magazines about the status of my story. No response yet, which is annoying: I don’t mind slow reading times, but I really, really think an inquiry should be met with all possible promptness.
I wasn’t quite as focused as I’d like at the start of the week but the end results are pretty satisfying.
