Tuesday, 16th November -- My second week of real embarrassment. Yet again, for the second time, I'm 1-4. The Rams didn't show up to the stadium last night and lost big. The only team that didn't let me down this week was the Buffalo Bills, thank you, Josh Allen. So, to date: 30-19. Again, if you used my picks, I'm sorry I'm such a dufus, guess I won't win first place this year, not that I ever have, but it's always a fond hope.
On the denouements of RECKONING, with the end to both plots in mind, well, sort of. As I've probably told you, I'm what's called a Pantser (a writer who writes by the seat of the pants) as opposed to a Plotser (a writer who outlines before writing), to which I always say when asked, how can I plot when I don't know what the characters are going to do? I guess it's maybe half and half amongst the writers I've met.
Today is gorgeous, in the sixties, a perfect day to head outside to a nice challenging hike, don't know where yet, but it'd be neat if I knew you guys were in your own place hiking with me (in spirit). Hey, maybe we can sing the Hitler song the GIs sang in WW2 when marching.
