(no subject)

Rather better after an undrugged night's sleep. Brane naked on the sofa. Jon pointed out the crushed and scattered remains of a cockroach where I'd been lying. Argh!

Down to 23 unanswered emails. I'm working through October/November last year. Oy.

Finally got Pandora to work. It's doing a good job, but maybe their displaying the album covers is a mistake: if it's not the sexism, it's the unintentional homoeroticism. Nice buns there, mate.

The Rest

The third sample chapter is now 4200 words long, with a satisfactory ending (the sun blows up - I love a good punchline). It should be 5000 words, but no problem, I have some blah blah about one of the character's teenage delinquency to put in.

The second sample chapter, aka Planet of Coffee, is stuffed up in the middle, with a really bad scene of postcard buying and some foreshadowing which doesn't go anywhere. I have to fix that.

The synopsis is too short and has a couple of gapers in it.

That's my to-do list...

ETA: For bonus points, work out how to correctly punctuate "one of the character's teenage delinquency", 'cos I'm sure not going to.
