Six books now outlined in short-short proposal form
I’m not sure which of them will stick and which will have to be redone — I’m going to bug Sheila Viehl to see if I can get her to tell me what I’m doing wrong. But in the meantime, I got the layout for the first book, which I’m already about fifty pages into.…
