Muse Margaret called thirty minutes ago. Twenty-six books, and this is the first time she has never had one single note. I was really hoping she liked the last batch of pages but I wasn't sure - but she loved them. I'm a very happy writer. So, on we go to proofing after I do my first pass and clean up a few things that got adjusted later in the book that now have to adjust in the first part of the book.

Did anyone see the Tom Hanks movie that all takes place in the same room over a long period of time?
Apparently, no one wants to see it because for streaming it's gone from 19.99 to 5.99 in one day.

Interesting. :-\
