Small Steps

May 20, 2009

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.
