Seeing red (red proofreader's marks, that is)
The first copyedited version of Book Two has landed on my doorstep arrived in my inbox.
It...still doesn't have an official subtitle, but I haven't yet heard objections to the one I proposed.
In any event, since I'm about to spend many hours in transit, thanks to this weekend's trip to College Station, TX, I suppose I'll have ample time to start working on it. We'll see what unfortunate typos I managed to miss when I submitted the manuscript.
(The official birthdate is around the end of this year, in case you're wondering.)
