slosh

The war with my basement is coming to an end. Things are still damp down there, but I elevated all the computer equipment ages ago for just this reason.

I vacuumed approximately 32 gallons of water from my basement last night. I'm assuming I'll pull another 16 tonight. Snow has started. The ground is freezing. Should be the end of my troubles for a little while.

All that means: No revisions done. By the end of my night I was just too tired, though I did start reading the second-to-last Black Company.

I think, though, that rain and flooding is going to be a major part of the next book. Maybe. Depends on if the first book sells. I'd love to "commit trilogy", but after my last attempt to do so crashed and burned so spectacularly I admit to being gunshy.

Then again, I am what I am. As much as I want to write about Binder or Kitsu, I'll probably end up writing about Myr anyway just to see where she's going.
