Updates February 2020

Been working on A Squire's History of Oz recently, a nonfiction project I've been meaning to realize for a little while now.  I also have some more submissions I'll be tackling, one of them that's due in about a week and the story for which I figured out this morning.  Tentatively calling it "Rest Stop."  The other is centered around Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea, otherwise known as the Captain Nemo story.  I actually read it a few years back for the first time, and was amazed at how compelling the first part of it, before Nemo is even introduced, actually was.  There's a Jules Verne park here in Tampa, so I almost feel compelled to work on this one.

Apart from these, I have Three Stooges Syndrome, in that there are of course larger projects I want to begin tackling, that I've mentioned here before, one of which (Collider) I worked on the outline for after previously tackling it anew last October, just before the blood-in-the-eye thing happened, which sort of derailed me for a while, and they keep butting up against each other.  And then I follow links in emails for shorter pieces I can submit, and...Oh, and I also worked on formatting another of the poetry collections, so that's another thing, and finally ordered copies of the last one I put out.

Plus, wrote about what I'm working on here, at the blog, which I don't do often enough.  Or perhaps the commentary I was doing a year ago for another project still leaves me feeling guilty...
