Why I hate the summer
Because I have low blood pressure.
Because I want to hibernate and wake up when it's cooler.
Because even if I'm always cold, I'd rather be cold in winter than suffer in the summer heat.
Because during the summer I can't eat much (which is a wonderful diet, but I don't really need one).
Because this is the year of the sloth and the summer looks even worse than the previous ones.
Sigh. Anyway, here are a few updates.
Five days and five trojans later, I managed to reinstall the printer. Hopefully the PC will remain virus-free for the rest of the summer.
My stomach is slowly settling, but I still don't feel like reading fiction, because I'm still too emotional to deal with it. Hence I'll review a non-fiction book on Friday. And I'll also postpone dealing with the Amazon pirate to when I feel better – which might mean September, but I don't care.
Writing-wise: I've jotted down all the facts for my historical novel, now I want to add the fiction. I also have a temporary ending, because I feel I'm dragging too long after the climax. So I'll probably delete a few more scenes or keep the very last two as epilogue (because they're fiction and not facts). I can't see the ending I had envisaged originally, so I guess it's not the right one for this story!
I'm slowly coloring SKYBAND, but my stomach doesn't allow me to sit for very long at the PC (my seated position is very bad for it in every season, I'm way too tall and tend to curl up even when seated), so I don't know how long it will take me. Apologies to Dear Reader.
Oh, and it's sales galore on Smashwords, which means you can have Air with 50% discount, Fire with 25% discount and Arquon FREE – all this until the end of the month, so hurry. One thing I beg you to do is please please please leave a review! How am I supposed to improve my writing if nobody leaves feedback? I'm strong enough, if you hated it and have good reasons for it, say so! Thank you!
Also, especially for the novels, copy and paste your review on Amazon, thank you… and by the way, here's another deal for you: the first 5 reviews on Amazon, Smashwords or Lulu get the Air merchandising (because I haven't done the drawings for Fire yet… ahem, sorry!). Offer valid for reviews of both Air or Fire – send your details and link to the review and I'll post the cards and drawings to you! Thank you!
Have a great week!
