Five Thing Thursday: July 4th.

Welcome, everyone to another installment of Five Thing Thursday and…

Here are Five Things I want you to Know:

Thing #1: Jade Moon Revisions are Done!! Now begins (well, they began yesterday) the final read through. I’m so eager to get through this final read/polish that I nearly missed scheduling this post ahead of time.

Thing #2: Keeping up a schedule that allows you to get stuff like this done in advance is a good thing – especially when you’re headed into a holiday.

Thing #3: Happy Barbecue Day!! Yeah, the 4th is supposed to be about something else, but we’ve still got kids in cages in this country, so I’d say we’ve pretty much shit all over everything this holiday stood for. Maybe next year…

Thing #4: This week’s Audio Landscape has been brought to you by: Def Leppard. I found concert footage from a gig they did in RIO not too long ago, and they still rock.

Thing #5: One of my friends recently said that, sometimes, and I’m paraphrasing here, sometimes, you get knocked down, and you can get right back up. Other times, you get knocked down, and you’ve gotta scream into a pillow for a bit, before you can get back up. And that’s ok. Just keep getting back up.

What am  I reading this week?

The Protector’s War by S. M. Stirling.

The Quantum Thief by Hannu Rajaniemi

What am I listening to this week?

The Shipping and Handling Podcast.

How have I been relaxing and refilling the well? This is going to be an odd weekend. I’ve got Today off, I go back to work for one day, then the usual weekend. Needless to say, I’m going to be hitting the book pretty hard in order to hit the query trenches sooner, rather than later.

Other than that, I think I’ll play it by ear…
