It’s still raining.

OPERATIONS: Yesterday, I landed the missing pieces of two scripts. Today I plan to do the same to a third, and that will clear the deck enough to clearly see what’s next. Ordered a cheap lapboard to replace the one my daughter bought me a few years ago, which broke over the winter. I usually reserve the evenings for notebook work, but I’m at a point now where I need to be on a keyboard at night, and I refuse to give up my evenings of sitting downstairs on the sofa with a cat next to me.

INBOX 80, but that’s mostly notes to self and delivery notifications. (And several links to ornamental grasses for sale, as I want to revisit my notion for a wildlife corridor.) Comic-Con is apparently two weeks away, and everything slows down for that now. And for a week after, as everyone comes home from that with diseases.

Okay, I wrote all that an hour ago and still haven’t pressed publish, so fuck it.

MISSION CONTROL: I can be contacted via the Cheng Caplan Company. Link in masthead to join my free newsletter. Forthcoming 2024: THE DEPARTMENT OF MIDNIGHT, DESOLATION JONES: THE BIOHZARD EDITION. 2025: THE STORMWATCH COMPENDIUM.
