Novel Update

The draft is nearing completion--it looks like I'll meet my end-of-June goal. I've finally got the story arc down, although in the act of getting it down the writing took a hit. I'll be doing another draft starting in August, now that I have the meat of the story down, I'm looking forward to dressing it up.

Summer Reading List

With the move and trying to complete this draft, I've been amiss in my reading duties. I finally got over to Powell's to buy some books. On the agenda:

The Commitments by Roddy Doyle
The Da Vinci Code by Dan Brown (I know, I know...)
Gate of the Sun by Elias Khoury (Feel better?)
The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-time by Mark Haddon
Jpod by Douglas Coupland
In Persuasion Nation by George Saunders

I apologize to the ladies for the maleness of the list. Sometimes it just happens that way.
