adrift

25 Feb 2011 news 0 Comments

Now that I’ve finished Ship of Souls, I find myself drifting along…searching for something to fill the hole left by a finish manuscript.  I’ve got plenty of grading to do, and reading for class; I just finished a last-minute application for an NEH Summer Institute on slavery and rebellion in the tropics…there’s still time, if you’re interested (deadline is March 1).  But what I really want is to be back with my characters in their underground world…the ending is open, but I’m not ready to start the sequel now—I haven’t even finished the sequel to Wish!  I guess I’ll do some grading, work on my conference paper, and try to dream up another book…rainy days are made for dreaming.
