Happy Groundhog Day! (also known around here as Hubs' emancipation day and Ayn Rand's birthday)
Okay, so the weekly update goes something like this...
I am up to 83% of the book on edit notes. I expect to finish the notes today and start inputting them. I do not expect to have this ready to publish by the 14th like I hoped, but stranger things have happened. All in all, though, I worked on the notes every day and went from 34% to 83%, so that's a win.
I didn't do any marketing this week. I do have a freebie starting tomorrow, though. PROJECT HERMES is next up on the rotation. Then, DYING EMBERS will be free the week after, in celebration of its 10th anniversary of being a published novel. Woot.
No reading yet. I'm just not feeling it at this time.
In baking news, I was busy. I did cinnamon rolls and pizza. Talk about an arm workout. I also did a vat of pulled pork, which gave me the opportunity to do Cuban sandwiches.
As for activity, it went better this week. Not great, but every journey begins with a single step and all that. I got out of the house and wandered the yard one day. Yesterday, I did some tree maintenance - cutting some pesky limbs and snipping others. I also took out the last lilac stalk and pruned the rose bush in the side yard. Then I went into the woods and threw some logs, after which I wandered around in the woods for a while. All good exercise. I haven't weighed myself lately, so... :shrug:
Ah, the lilac... Here's hoping it grows new shoots. If not, it's outta there. I'll replace it with something else bushlike or I'll just let the irises take over that spot. We'll see.
I'm pretty sure we got the wren out of the garage. Yay.
I did some genealogy research that I didn't have to pay for, so I could answer a question for Mom. She was wondering if her grandmother ever became a citizen. I don't have proof positive, but on the 1930s census, under Citizenship, it's marked YES. So, we've got that going for us. I've got the naturalization papers for Dad's dad and his grandpa. I just need to find and download the papers for the others. (No reason. And nothing to do with the current panic about deportations. Just for our own edification.)
Other that that, it's pretty tame around here. How are things going in your world?
