I took some small steps today that I hope will bear future fruit. For one thing, I sent out 8, count ’em 8, queries to editors for my new urban fantasy. I also got 5 more ready to go out! Then, this evening, my wife and I finally signed the closing papers on our refinanced mortgage. We’d delayed the closing because of travel and my father-in-law’s surgery, so it was a great feeling to get it done at last. Now, if I can just get a good night’s sleep tonight for the first time in many days. Every night, I’ve been up half the night with intense coughing spells. As a result, I haven’t been able to recover as quickly as I normally would from this sinus infection. One good night, just one good night; that’s what I need to get back on track. Wish me luck! See you tomorrow.
