Since the students return on the 8th, I decided another three day weekend was in order. Jump time for more novel edits.

One thing I’ve always liked about writing is my influence over whether or not it happens. Of course, I have very little sway over what froths up to the screen, whether a passage works, or the aesthetics of my style. That — like stories — ultimately comes from someplace else. But the go/no go decision is mine, and that is worth a lot when the bombs of fate land at the doorstep.
