Kiss 3 by Mark A. Harrison
Nothing like 1800 words of freshly written prose to put a spring in your step on the way home.
This is what I live for: when writing a scene is like bringing life from the void, only it’s easy, and the only thing stopping you is the low battery warning, and looking up to see that the baristas are sweeping up because the cafe is about to close for the night, and thinking that maybe you might want to let your spouse know you’re still alive before it gets pitch black outside, then walking home in the gloaming under the street lights with all the spring blossoms shining like small stars and thinking, yes, I can still do this.
Now if I can just make a habit of this, the next two years (minus a month) might seem like an ever-so-slightly smaller version of eternity.
“Yes, I can still do this”. Some of us have never had any doubt. 🙂

Two years?

Fractal Theory is due out in April of 2019, so still almost two years away. Even though I’ll be working with my editor on it this fall, and looking over proofs and galleys and whatnot next spring, it still seems like an impossibly long way away!
