SUMMERYEAR
- Giving up the wait for two remaining beta readers. Kind of annoyed with them both. Won’t mention names.
- Going to start the second edit on Monday, and that’ll likely take me a week or two. After that, I’ll send a copy to one or two new (or old, if they want) beta readers for any final suggestions. Then, I’ll give it one more quick read through and edit and send it off into the world of agents and publishers and rejection letters. Which reminds me…I still need to research publishing houses and the like. Probably while the last beta readers have their copies.
- In case I forgot to mention, I have a deadline for myself on Halloween to have it ready to send out.

RUSALKA
- Outlining/writing is being put (mostly) on hold while I edit Summeryear. I’m going to try to isolate at least a half hour or so to brainstorm and keep the ideas fresh in my mind during that time.

SUNTAMER (painting/tutorial)
- Hoping to finish the painting within the week. I’m not entirely sure if that’ll happen, but we’ll see. This is the most time I’ve spent on one piece before, so I’m trying to make it as close to perfect as possible.
- After the painting is finished, I’m going to use the process screenshots to write a digital painting tutorial for deviantART and here. Never done that before, so we’ll see how it goes.

THOUGHTY GOBBETS
- I made a bit show of explaining what a thoughty gobbet was, and of course haven’t actually posted any yet. I’ll get to it. Didn’t have time because I was out of town this past week. That’s definitely on the to-do list for probably Monday or Tuesday. I’ve got a few topics I think would make interesting posts.

Until next week.

Cheers.
