Grateful
It's a beautiful bright Friday here in Lincoln, Nebraska, the last day of our official UNL spring break, and I'm feeling grateful for a lot of things.
I'm grateful to all the people who are speaking up and speaking out about the tragic killing of Trayvon Martin and the problems of the "Stand Your Ground" laws in Florida (and elsewhere). I'm grateful that the Toulouse shooter Mohamed Merah can't kill anyone else, and sad about the way it happened.
Peace on the families of the victims. Peace on the families of the killers. Peace.
• the long spates of uninterrupted time this week to work on my second novel, BAD SHOOT, which I'll be sending off to my editor at St. Martin's this coming Monday. I'm at about 250 pages now, which is short, but there's still time.
• the kind feedback from and good points raised by all the commenters on my short piece, "The Dangerous Myth of a Room of One's Own," and the help of Tracy Seeley and Lorraine López as I was writing. I'm glad people are continuing to find the piece useful and tweeting it out there.
• this really nice (and really early!) review of HELL OR HIGH WATER at LitStack. Many thanks to the insightful reviewer, Stephanie Ward.
• the new IndieBound page for HELL OR HIGH WATER, so if you want to get a copy from your local indie bookstore, you can.
