Bits and Pieces

My life is a bit fragmented these days--that seems to be what happens when one has too many irons in the fire simultaneously--so I thought I'd give you an update, in no particular order, of the projects whirring in my brain, all at warp speed. Hold on to your hats!

Project 1: Finish a proposal for a book about comparative oncology with Dr. Gerry Post, DVM and Board certified oncologist, in time for a meeting of Pet Writers in NYC on the 12th. Status: in progress

Project 2: Finish an article for a local magazine on autism and inclusion in the community. Status: in progress

Project 3: Copy edit the manuscript of the book. Due in a week. Status: waiting for manuscript. Prediction: A major pain in the rear turn around is in store.

Project 4: Communicate with PR person from publisher to get moving on launch parties and press since we now have a publication date of SEPT 6!!!!! ACK!!! It seems like tomorrow!

Project 5: Set up and coordinate cover shoot. Status: waiting for direction from publisher but due by Feb 14 at the latest.

Project 6: Prepare for major snowstorm rumored to be heading up the coast imminently. Status: We need more salt but we have edibles.

Welcome to my world. Now back to work.
