"Mud Season" this year is gonna be a royal bitch.
2/3 through my first pass on the DRAGON'S TEETH copy-edit. I'm also finding a few "line edit" things in pencil rather than ink -- don't know if those are the Nice Editor Lady getting in a second shot, or what. Most of them are okay, but a couple I think I'm likely to "stet." I still think she took some of the bite out of Dierdre in WINTER OAK. Thus do authors eternally kvetch and kvell. My words, after all, are sacred and universally sublime...or some "s" word, anyway.
