Productive Weekend

Whew, without going into a great deal of detail, I managed to do what I think I couldn’t, this weekend:

1. Edited, and did some serious formatting planning for the longest IFWG Publishing project: Constellation Station (childen’s illustrated book, the project commenced October 2009!). May I say, bravo to Gary Alexander for a great story, and Ioanny Dimov for amazing illustrations (22 of them!).
2. Finished editing (my side) Louis Lowy’s Die Laughing. I was nearly in tears when finishing it, and not from laughing. This is a classy book and deserves to be successful.
3. I read up to a third of a most interesting, compelling draft of one of our current author’s new manuscripts. Great possibilities for next year, I believe.
4. Read well into Lincoln by David Herbert Donald . An amazing biography – I have not read a better one.
