Started the 2nd act of my ‘printer’ story (on borrowed paper in the car service waiting room). Hurtling (or lurching) toward a conclusion this weekend.

I start back full-time next week and have students the week after. Getting better at organizing my time. It appears that it may be better if I write in the morning before work.

Listened to the last several audio stories from Clarkesworld Magazine, which were all excellent. Listened to stories from June’s Hypersonic Tales and was a little disappointed. Enjoyed listening to the EscapePod episodes in the 190′s up to 201, which included the Hugo Nominees for short stories and a couple of excellent additional stories, N-words and Harry the Crow.

I’ve been reading Burr by Gore Vidal to get me back in the American History frame of mind, albeit from a contrarian point-of-view.

After my last round of rejections I’ve been swept away by AP Economics and coaching. This weekend I plan to submit all my finished stories and work on my latest. We’ll see.
