I'm about 100 pages into the edit/rewrite of Silky.  There is more reworking than I expected to find, but that's all right -- it's been fun and a wonderful learning experience.  If I can concentrate on it, I shouldn't have much trouble getting through the book.  I think I might go straight into book 2 after I'm done and while everything is still fresh.  That book will take far more reworking.

And I started book 3.  I wasn't going to, but I always start a novel on my birthday, and it was the only one that really called to me.  I'm taking it very slowly for me -- only a few hundred words a day so far -- while I get through the rest of Silky 1, at least.

In case you can't tell, I'm really enjoying the work.  The other work in my life has momentarily eased up -- or maybe I'm just getting used to it.  It probably helps that spring has arrived (39f!  Yay!), and I can sit in my office without freezing.  I really will have to do something about that before next winter.  (Yes, I say that every year.)

I've written over 100k words so far this year, which is down from my usual word count, but since I'm doing far more editing than usual, that's not a surprise.  I wrote a short story this weekend, but I'm not particularly happy with it.  I think, in fact, that it needs to be reworked into a myth and reworked into the canon for a larger work.  That might be fun -- writing myths for a larger world, and then incorporating the myths into the stories.  That looks like a long term project!  But I could do a few more short pieces every now and then.  Might make a nice writing exercise.  Maybe try to keep each myth down to about 1000 words.

Not that I actually need more to write.
