Writing Diary: July 16, 2004
I had a meeting in the morning about an upcoming project for the Saskatchewan Science Centre, then after lunch got a good hour-plus in on Shards of Exalibur, followed by a pretty good hour-plus on the Orson Scott Card bio, so all in all, a reasonably productive day!
Sometime this coming week I’ve got to finish going through Lost in Translation, though; Five Star wants the final corrected copy back by Friday. I might have to put Shards of Excalibur on hold for a few days–we’ll see.
Also got a copy of the contract for the genetics book; now I’m waiting to hear what my agent thinks.
