University workload is amazingly high right now, and I’m a wee bit stressed at the moment, and haven’t had time for any serious writing. It looks like I’ll be failing in my goal to finish TLOB by the end of the semester, but by golly it will be done by the end of next week! I should be done with all school-related things by Tuesday, and after that point, I will be focusing all of my energy in finishing this draft – and then going back and revising. After that, I’ll whisk TLOB off to Michael Ireland and turn my attention to some short stories – and begin plotting the next novels.

But alas, for now TLOB is on hold. Unless someone else wants to take exams and do final projects for me?
