I've proofed the first fifty-one pages. The fascinating part was reading the introduction by the "writer" of the book about Mr. Bronstein. As you know I wrote it and the first page of what follows back in October, just a rough of it. I smoothed it out when I began three weeks ago, but in reading it I realized I completely didn't have the voice of the author character down - that didn't happen until the following chapter. So, I made quite a few changes in the introduction, ran them by Muse Margaret and it's so much better now.

Do you enjoy this part of the writing process?

I do. I normally don't really do any rewriting when proofing, but the intro had such blatantly wrong stuff in it that I had to. With everything after that, it's just minor stuff because I've already gone over and over it until I'm happy, prior to moving on to new pages.

I think I may have spent too many years in newspapers. There's not been enough time in the past for anything but a superficial proofing.

Congratulations to DR ChasSmith on his golden guess about the new book.

The idea of it makes me extremely happy and in high anticipation.

Here is a nice "preview" of SECOND SAMUEL written by a local reviewer, who can't review it, because he is in the play.

Looks good, wish I could be there to see it!

Darn, I missed Vixmom. I could have asked her to text in the morning.

You could text her and tell her to text back in the am

After work I went to a birthday party for a close friend. There was a great turn out of friends. We hadn't really gotten together since mid December, so we hadn't talked politics. People have pretty much decided and while there was a variety of favorites, there were definite winners in each party. Interestingly enough there were several dems who are switching to Rep for the caucuses. This is fun

Were they switching parties to vote for someone or against someone?

Thank you. I'm looking forward to the afterparty. Actually, I'm looking forward to the competition. But we're dancing so much that it seems exhausting just looking at the list.

There were only a few. I can't speak for all, but the one I talked to a lot was definitely switching to vote for not against.

Cillaliz · « **Reply #134 on:** January 21, 2016, 08:59:22 PM »

There definitely are people who will switch to vote against someone from both parties. It happens every year, especially if their first choice doesn't have a chance

I just hope I don't choke. I usually don't get nervous, but I did in December. So, who knows?

Trying to upload to You Tube and it's back to molasses mode.

bk · « **Reply #139 on:** January 21, 2016, 09:46:06 PM »

Had to stop uploading - too annoying. Should take all of five minutes and after thirty it still had thirty to go. Methinks You Tube just is too big for itself.

I thought of that but decided to wait until tomorrow and text if she hasn't posted by the time I am up.

I am happy to send a video link to Welcome to My World to those who'd like to see the show - I was only going to send it to those who actually bought the script, but since that was only about three or four people, well...

Good evening!

I am home from our preview performance.

TCB · « **Reply #146 on:** January 21, 2016, 10:33:58 PM »

The show went very well.

TCB · « **Reply #147 on:** January 21, 2016, 10:34:47 PM »

We had about 30 people in attendance.

TCB · « **Reply #148 on:** January 21, 2016, 10:36:09 PM »

I don't know why we call it a preview. It is really just a final dress rehearsal.

TCB · « **Reply #149 on:** January 21, 2016, 10:37:45 PM »

In fact, those who attend are warned that we might stop if something goes wrong.
