I have been very productive over the last couple of months, after getting partially derailed with a health issue that left me too painful to spend more than an hour a day at my desk/computer. I took a research trip to Maine, finding more than enough "atmosphere" when my visit coincided with Hurricane Jose finally ending his meandering around the Atlantic. My days and nights were filled with drizzle, swirling and drifting fog, and cool, windy conditions. All very much in the forefront of this suspense novel. I'm now in my last draft. After that comes the continuity read while searching for those pesky little mistakes that plague every author in every book--repeated words, characters whose names have been changed everywhere but one or two places, and those other little nagging errors writers have to pursue in an effort to stamp them out (never 100% successful unless you are a perfectionist writer who may never publish for fear of this bugaboo.) Pub date is still "on" for the end of November, with a book launch being tentatively set to coincide.
