You know the old saying about not letting the grass grow under your feet?
That is NOT happening here in Corindi Caravan Park. No, no, no!
This week was all work, work, work.
But busy is good, right?
As for that grass growing through the annexe floor — a floor pegged down on all sides and unable to be pulled up without dismantling the annexe?
That is not so good!
Today I fixed that problem. First I cut the grass in the puppy courtyard. (see exhibit A!)
Then I found a way to rid the flooring of that pesky grass without out too much effort at all, which meant our chores were all done by morning coffee time!
I hope you are not letting the grass grow under you feet.
HEALTH WARNING: do NOT run with scissors and do NOT try this lawn cutting technique at home on large lawns!)
Oh, and then there’s the small thing about sending another round of edits for Season of Shadow and Light back to Simon & Schuster. This is the final ‘uh-oh’ version that the printer will be binding into what’s called an advance reader — or proof — copy and S&S will send out to reviewers and book buyers. That means this edit had to be pretty spot on. I get one more go to dot those t’s and cross those i’s (only joking!) before the final books are printed.
So, book three is getting closer to those shelves. I can’t wait. I totally love this story and the messages woven through it.
While it was all chores, chores, chores, the week started out with a bit of fun. The lovely Janine (who, by the way, has her own fantastic, entertaining, and often thought-provoking blog (Shambolic Living) invited me to chat on air with Fiona Wyllie. We were supposed to be talking about downsizing from a house into a caravan, but we talk a lot about books and laughed a lot.
