One of several billion work projects down: I have written & turned in the proposal for the final Walker Papers book. Working on the synopsis gave me some heart palpitations as I considered who I was going to have to kill. #gulp Now to pare down the very long list of things to do and choose one that seems Most Important Now, to accomplish over the next 3 days.

impatient!
Now that I have learned to make e-books I want to do ALL the Old Races stuff RIGHT NOW and get them up for people to buy! NOW! NOW NOW NOW! …except I haven’t edited “YoM”, I need cover art for it and ORIGINS, and I need to write one or two stories for AFTERMATH.

I have just submitted the 2nd to last Walker Papers to my editor. I feel faintly sick now. I’m on the last leg of a 12 year journey now, and…wow. Just wow. Holy crap. I realized a few minutes ago that there’s one mistake in SPIRIT DANCES: the last lines should be “to be continued in RAVEN CALLS”, rather than whatever it says (tune in next time, I think). RAVEN CALLS does say “to be continued”, and MOUNTAIN ECHOES’s last words are “to be concluded in the final book of…
