Burning Skies today, driving to Seattle tomorrow
Word count: 9929 | Since last entry: 3176
Busy day today, ending with dinner with David J. Williams and Kamila Miller before David's reading from his new book Burning Skies at Powell's.
The writing is going well but will plainly blow way past my 10,000-word budget before I'm done. Could be as much as 15,000. As I said, I see some places to cut, and I think the exercise will also tighten and swiften (if that were a word) the story.
Heading for Seattle tomorrow, to hang out with Janna Silverstein and Mark and Elizabeth Bourne and attend the Clarion West party for Elizabeth Bear at Mary Kay Kare's.
And that's enough namedropping for one blog post.
