Make it So #SundaySalon
Happy Sunday! Sunday Salon is hosted by Deb at ReaderBuzz. Check out her post and the links to see what other bloggers have been up to in the last week.
How’s the weather?
We’ve cooled off some which is a big relief. Although, I was out earlier today and when it’s sunny, the humidity makes it very uncomfortable. Clouds and breeze pop up periodically to make things feel much better.
What are you reading?
Patrick Stewart read his own autobiography, Making It So. The book is over 18 hours long and I’m 93% through it. Even so, I don’t want it to end. I have loved listening to Jean Luc Picard’s voice tell the story of Patrick Stewart’s life, beginning with his poverty-ridden boyhood. I just heard the part where he gets knighted. What a life!
I’m reading The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo by Taylor Jenkins Reid as an e-book. This is a very different story about actors and show business, but there are some interesting parallels.
What are you watching?
I wrote about Magpie Murders on PBS. I enjoyed the production and was fully fascinated by the interviews with Anthony Horowitz who wrote both the book and the screenplay — using completely different structures.
What are you doing?
I’m on Day 81 of my challenge to write for 90 consecutive days. My manuscript is near 88,000 words and I’m only a handful of scenes from The End. I’m in good shape to meet two goals — pass 90,000 words and write the final scene.
How are you this fine Sunday?
