[01:00] Harris to update Cabinet on engagement with EU ministers

#Yesterday: Beta reader day. Productive session with my primary beta reader and a wonderful discussion about being a professional and/or genre writer. Including private snark about people who are not like us, especially the self-righteous ones with no awareness of how self-righteous they are. (Self-righteously said.)

Spend evening and insomniac hours integrating feedback into three chapters. With some serious additions resulting in splitting a chapter.

#Today: Integrate one more chapter. Final review and posting of a chapter to second beta reader.

Read yet again what “Deep” means. Since I am alphaing a 1st deep POV, I should grok it better.

Then, more editing on the next three chapters to go to beta reader. And if time finally start first edit on chapters for my next volume. #NMKonbiniIdolWIP

#yesterday Mainly worked on rough draft of a story set in Sung Dyasty China. It includes some Chinese based puns ( #scribesandmakers 3/23). And a Tang dynasty poem adapted to be a Bamboo branch song. Just learned that term yesterday. Esoteric be us.

Final Web novel draft of "Wild Ginger in Parting" finished.

Figured out how to cheat the paywall of another grammer checker. No hacking in involved.

#today Integrate beta feedback into "Tree Dreams."

Polish "Jinja Shadow" for new beta reader.

Post to AO3

Resume edit sweep.
