Still Workshopping It

April 27th 2004 at 5:00 pm

Well no one has gotten sick this year yet, and we’re all clipping along with critiques and evening bull sessions. Sadly we thought more local eateries would be open, but that isn’t the case.

Just talked to the cross cultural contact in Columbus to verify some info about my conference call for tomorrow for a person who will be living in Grenada.

My next novel, Ragamuffin, was well received and I got a lot of good suggestions. Sadly, I didn’t run this morning with Paul, as my lower back was KILLING me. I think the bed I’m sleeping on is far, far too soft, and I’m contorting funny…

    Tobias,

    Wish I was there with all of you. Perhaps next year. Glad to hear Ragamuffin is doing well. I know there was positive feedback about Crystal Rain last year — and look where that went. :-)
    Hopefully anyone who’s interested can take a gander at Ye Shall when I’m finished with it this summer. (Which would mean BH3, if it exists then) would get Doe.
