Almost 5k words into the latest chapter, but 3 appointments to start the month, ending with the left side T6-T9 RFA. Means very little work getting done in the first half of the month. Just sent an email to Deranged Doctor Designs to get a cover booked, so that'll be ongoing. Did print out the last chapter to do some edits during my ow-ow-stuck-in-bed week. Might also start reading through the series to start finding some random info drops I need to recall.
Why ain't you fans anal enough to have started a wiki and fill it with every little detail I can just anonymously check, huh?
You're failing me!
Also have all of the Vicky novel (I think like 150 pages?) printed up, so if I run out of things to keep occupied I suppose I can get to that as well...
Outside of that, watching things, reading things. I'm officially an old man since I got excited yesterday when I realized Erik Larson has a new history novel out...buying a non fiction novel day one, what has happened to me? And I'm reading things in paper again! Not on the kindle...
Guess I'll be complaining about the newest generation next. Stupid Zoomers. In my day we protested with drum circles! You're doing it wrong!
Update: RFA got pushed up to Tuesday, had to cancel other appointment. Means I'll have more of May to write after I recover, I suppose. Also added about 4k more into the second to last chapter. Kind of iffy on if this scene will make the final cut. Feels very similar to other sections and might interrupt the tone I'm going for. But its also quite heartfelt and some solid humor. We'll see!
As per usual, my absolutely unqualified as anything except a reader advice is to keep everything you can until you absolutely have to pull out the Fireman's Ax of Savage Editing (it is in the Munchkin(tm) Expansion Pack). And if there is both heartfelt and humor, maybe the scene in question isn't the place where the cuts need to be made? And since I am officially "old", I complain about all kinds of stuff, mostly the lack of shows I want to watch (despite the fact that "In my day, we only had 3 TV channels and had to watch whatever they happened to be showing or do without. And mostly what the were showing was re-runs of "Gilligan's Island" or "The Brady Bunch.") Best of luck with the medical stuff, Boss. Rest and recover and watch lots of fun stuff.
