Yeah…today wasn’t that great.\u00a0 I revised through about 2k words in Desert Stars,<\/em> but none of it was new material, and I only worked on it for maybe 3 cumulative hours.\u00a0 I’m working full time now, but even so, I can do better than this.<\/p>\n

My self-imposed deadline for Desert Stars<\/em> is July 9th.\u00a0 That needs I need to do three chapters per week, and last week, I only did two.\u00a0 Some of the later chapters are going to require tossing out everything and starting from scratch, but for the next four or five, I probably just need to shuffle scenes around without changing too much.\u00a0 Hopefully, I can get through three this week, perhaps even four.<\/p>\n

Genesis Earth<\/em><\/a> continues to do well, though.\u00a0 I checked it at work, and saw that 69% of the people who view the Amazon page end up buying the book.\u00a0 That’s huge.\u00a0 Some glitches over the weekend have made sales updates sporadic, but it’s still selling a good 1.5 copies per day.\u00a0 So to all of you who have bought a copy: thanks so much!<\/p>\n
