Echoes in the Ether V

We have made some progress on my dad’s book this week. Two more chapters have been edited, and we only have ten more chapters to go. I need to spend some time working on the book cover. I’ve had a cover in mind for over a decade. In my mind, I see the silhouettes of two Native Americans sitting by a fire, with smoke rising between them. I picture the background as orange or dark red. Thoughts?

I worked up the nerve to hook up my interface and mic to my computer the other day. I downloaded Audacity and experimented with its settings. When I checked out the mic, I noticed that something was rattling around inside it that didn’t sound right, so I took it apart and found a loose component and a broken wire. Luckily, I managed to solder it back together, and it seems to work fine. Who knows if it was broken when I bought it or if it broke during shipping? I don’t guess it matters since I fixed it.

I haven’t worked on The Corvid’s Key this week, but I did write a couple of drabbles. The urge to write something longer is definitely burning within me. Hopefully, it builds up pressure and explodes onto the page soon. The only excuse I can offer for not writing more is that I’m lazy. I need to learn to write a little here and there when I have the opportunity and make it a habit. The drabbles give me a sense of accomplishment or help me feel like I have completed something, but I know that I need to do something more substantial.

We only have 104 days left in this year! It’s time to get things done. Let’s go!
