Update and All That

I have several possible non-fiction writing gigs up in the air. I'm waiting on a couple of queries and waiting to hear back from a couple of places that asked for writing samples.

I've written four versions of the synopsis: a too-large version (20 page double-spaced Courier 12pt), a large version (12 page double-spaced Courier 12 pt), which turns into a smaller version (9 page double-spaced Times New Roman 12pt) or even smaller version (5 page single-spaced TNR 12 pt), and later today I plan to create the micro version (1 page single-spaced Times New Roman 12pt).

I also sent out several submissions today. You can't sell them if you don't submit them.

Tonight [livejournal.com profile] careswen and I plan to do some work on Shimmers & Shadows. Maybe set the final ToC, create the blurb page, and finalize some business stuff.

Somewhere in here I'd like to start polishing up a couple of short pieces I recently finished, maybe get some words on the next novel (or two), and finish a couple of short pieces I've been kicking around. I suspect I will get back to that once the synopsis is done and I've started submitting Last Car around.
