Horse Feathers Returns
The long wait is over and
Horse Feathers
has returned. I posted Chapter 33 today.
This story is getting way longer than I thought it would be. At this rate, Horse Feathers is going to be longer than Seventh Night when it's finished. But I think that's mainly a side effect of approach. Seventh Night is rather plot and action centric, where Horse Feathers takes a more meandering path and does a lot of sensory description and world building that really doesn't fit the Seventh Night novel. I mean you don't stop to smell the roses when you're being chased by an evil wizard... I'm just hoping the length isn't me being unnecessarily repetitive.
I finished reading Clan of the Cave Bear, which had it's good points, but you could probably cut 100 pages from that novel if you trimmed out all the redundancy. I'm reading through the Acorna series now, finished the first novel and on to the second.
I've been working on some new Cafepress designs. This one is for the NCIS fan portal. Rule #62 as unveiled in this week's episode.
I worked on a couple things for Pretty Little Liars too, but one got abandoned and the other may get revamped. Follow the links to DeviantArt if you're curious.
I'm a little nervous about my upcoming podcast interview. It's related to the Living Single on Minimum Wage book, which is budgeting. But I get the impression the interviewer might want to get into the politics of minimum wage and my thoughts on that aren't simple and sound bite friendly.
