A cool, dark morning with warm, dark coffee...

Part I of THE COLD EYE is now marked up with red ink (notes) black ink (rewritten bits), and post-its tacked to relevant passages. 5 more parts to go, and then another pass to put it all together, and then another to polish it, and...

Yeah. And people ask me if I ever read my books once they're done. After an average of 10 passes, including the copy edit, would YOU?

Meanwhile, today there is more revising, and some editing of Other Peoples' Work, and dealing with the ACA for 2016, oh joy...

Tomorrow there will be socializing. And probably some whinging about the ACA paperwork. Because Tis the Season.

dude, no, what?

Best new meh review of SILVER ON THE ROAD over on Goodreads includes the following line:

"Oh, and also, the cover is atrocious, but I guess that's par for the course, given the genre."

Yeah, okay.  I may have some issues with the story-accuracy of the cover art, but overall it's hot damn with chocolate sauce.
