Phish was fun. Hippies know how to party, and I am in recovery mode from the damage I did to my body. I hit a wall recently with these last rounds of editing, so I’m in the middle of one last vacation to freshen my mind before I finish this novel. Looking at the same [...]
Almost
Tuesday, June 15th, 2010
I have just finished the 4th draft of my novel. Since the previous draft, I have rewritten just about every single non-dialogue sentence.

I couldn’t decide exactly what I wanted the first substantive post on this blog to be about, so I figured I’ll just talk about a bunch of different topics to get this thing rolling. This is my last week as GM of Rocky Mountain, so I can’t wait for it to end and be over. [...]
