Writing, Charlet, Cosmic Cat, Science Fiction
I've set my third book about the Adventures of Curtis, Connie, and Cosmic Cat aside for the moment. I'm attempting to reread my full length science fiction novel, "Charlet." It's basically complete and has been edited. I'm just checked for passive sentences and phrases. It should be complete in the next few days. I'll start posting excerpts from it. I need to decide if I'll take scattered paragraphs or post a complete chapter a few paragraphs or page at a time. Anybody have a preference? Let me know. I'll be back on the Adventures book by the end of the week--if everything goes right.

Writing update.
I'm still working on rewriting a novel. It'll be done this week, hopefully. I'll then be able to get back to my Cosmic Cat series of books for adolescents. It needs the last chapter and about twenty illustrations. Anybody have a good book agent out there that would like a new client? I made the mistake of watching the Dallas football game today. I should have worked on my novel. The Vikings showed up and a group of other people wearing Dallas uniforms were there. It's about all that can be said about them--they were there. In any case everybody have a good day.

Update on writing
I've got to get to this more often. It's been almost a month since I've been on this. I've spent some time recently rereading a previously written science fiction novels. I probably shouldn't have. It's sort of like writing a poem. When is a poem done? It's done when you get tired of working on it. I think a book is very similar. I did find a few errors and some sections that needed to be restructured but it wasn't bad. Out of 120,000 words I probably changed less than a 1,000. I'll start putting short sections of it up for people to read. I'm tired and have a head ache I think I'll shut this thing down and rest. Have a good day.
