Cloudy and cold
We’re supposed to get the first substantial snowstorm of the season this coming weekend.
It feels weird not to have a Process Muse post going live today. I do, however, have post up over on Ink-Dipped Advice about cleaning out the In boxes. You can read it here.
There are two serial episodes going live today.
One is from ANGEL HUNT:
Episode 99: Lianna Returns to Lachlan
Lianna and Lachlan resume their affair.
The other is from DEADLY DRAMATICS:
Episode 49: A Surprise Visitor
Matt’s jealous that Nina left with Jake. Nina doesn’t care. Now, Nina wakes up to a surprise.
Yesterday morning, I drafted two episodes of Legerdemain. It was good to get consistently back in that world. I also started the edits for the re-release of the novelette “Severance” and decided I will use a photo I took earlier this autumn for the cover. I considered giving it a new title, because of the television show of the same name, but the title fits the piece better than anything else I’ve come up with, so it’s staying.
I wrote two reviews, submitted them, and received my next pair of assignments.
Popped down to the post office, which was very busy.
I had scripts to turn around. Three of them, in fact, that needed serious attention. And I got them done.
Yoga was good, although it was hard to get off my butt, out of the house, and over there. Once I was there, it was worth it. I have to adjust to the class being on Tuesday instead of Thursdays, though.
Medical facilities are going back to mandatory masking. Duh. They should have never stopped. The COVID numbers are going so high, I think I’ll skip First Friday and the Farmer’s Market on Saturday. I don’t want to be indoors with germy strangers. I have a few other times this month where I have to be indoors with strangers. Even though I will mask, I want to mitigate exposure as much as possible, so some events will fall off the schedule, because the reward does not outweigh the risk.
On today’s agenda: draft two more episodes of Legerdemain. Some more work on “Severance.” Hopefully, some editing on another project. Three large coverages. I need to start working on a couple of proposals that need to go out sooner rather than later to book some gigs later in the year.
Yesterday was a good, steady, productive day, at a sane pace. Let’s hope I can keep it up!
