Writing Diary: July 21, 2004
A productive day, once I got some odds and ends done in the morning. I spent a good solid two hours at Second Cup on Shards of Excalibur; still didn’t quite get to the end, which is frustrating, because I absolutely have to finish reading the page proofs for Lost in Translation and I think I’ll have to do that during my fiction-writing time tomorrow, drat it.
But, anyway, today, good progress. And I still had time to finish up Chapter 3 of the Orson Scott Card bio and send that off for his review.
