Escape from Indianapolis

Escaped with family by car to La Crosse WI, where last of four living brothers finally gets hitched today.

Meanwhile, Mark Warren slaves away on text. Good signs: he cut my "precious" first chapter by one-third! And now demands some grounding text be added. Moreover, chapter 2 is now appendix 1, because Mark felt the book started too slow with it up front.

Some authors would freak at such treatment, but this exactly why I always work with Mark on books. I want a serious and committed editor in charge.

I am getting very much excited.

Finish this bubba and then it's the Badlands for the Barnetts in June. Gotta get in touch with my inner Crazy Horse and clear away the Deadwood.
