Editor has accepted the rewrite, and handed the manuscript off to Production.\u00a0 I will have to deal with the copy edits, but after that I can schedule eye and dental appointments without worrying that something will get in the way…at least not from that book.\u00a0\u00a0 I’m back from DragonCon, which was its usual busy, crowded, exciting, exhausting, educational, confusing, stimulating (in programming and people-watching) and boring (elevator lines) self.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Today was laundry, chores, more laundry, making bread, talking to Agent, taking stock of grocery levels,\u00a0 and so on.<\/p>\n
I had only five action items at DragonCon this year, having had to ask Programming to take me off of a few because I was still hurting a lot and my voice was weak–which they kindly did.\u00a0\u00a0 I was on a research panel (was able to talk a little about the research for COLD WELCOME.)\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 And on a military-related panel on the differences between modern and medieval and ancient and other concepts of generalship.\u00a0\u00a0 Something new this year was being one of a number of writers who volunteered to spend an hour giving four people 15 minute one-on-one mentoring.\u00a0 (You can cover a lot in 15 minutes–not everything, but answer several specific questions.)\u00a0\u00a0 I had my web guru and friend Karen Shull along for help, too–and she was.\u00a0 Carried the big tote bag for me, reminded me to take breaks before I fell over and not when already staggering, and generally took care of the scatterbrained person I was for at least part of the time.<\/p>\n
I didn’t take any pictures, but she did, so there are a couple of pictures of me on a panel on her Facebook.\u00a0\u00a0 Last night, back home, I slept well, but was too busy today to take a nap, so I’m wearing out rapidly now, about to head for bed.<\/p>\n
