When great news involves more work

Aha. Just got good news of the most stressful sort. The kind that's good, but requires me to do stuff! May need to extend my stay, may need to make a small side-trip to meet people, will probably have to write something I am very much unaccustomed to writing.

And that's while I still have to be working on Black Disc.

This feels like it's going to be a very odd trip. I am now kind of wishing I could take a crash course under certain people for guidance in doing a specific kind of writing. Hah! If I write the names, it probably becomes obvious where I might be going and what I need to work on very soon.

I think I'll muddle along on my own, and study on my own. The other party is probably going to end up co-writing this thing anyway--they've got more power over it than me, and certainly way more experience.

Dreaming big dreams here. In the best case, it will still take a long time, but it seems less unlikely and far out than it used to....
