Early to rise
I am sitting in my office. I won’t get to work this morning because we have a television appearance. Which is cool, but I wanted to see what my office looked like this early in the morning. It’s wonderful. Sunlight baths one half of the space and lays in long rectangles across the pale wood floor. It’s a sight to lift the spirits and make the muse itch to get working. One of the ideas behind the new office was that it would increase my productivity. I’m a sunlight junkie when I work. Oh, occasionally rain, storm, or gloom of night is perfect for a scene or a story, but most of the time sunlight is the key for me. I have a third desk that is movable so I can chase the sunlight all day if I wish to. Cool.
I did eight pages yesterday. My goal was to do a days work in the room before we went out on tour. DANSE MACABRE comes out tomorrow, so I got my full work day in just ahead of all the hoopla. I’m looking forward to seeing everyone across the country. I’m looking forward to finally being able to discuss the book, though early on in tour most will not have read it, so it’s spoiler city. If you have specific questions from late in the book at the signings you’ll have to ask quietly when you come up to get your book signed. People hate spoilers. I guess I won’t be able to talk freely about DANSE MACABRE until late in tour.
