Good call

I was right--I worked for an hour on my novel rewrite today. I didn't accomplish a whopping amount of work, but it's probably more writing than I've done in the last two months put together, so it feels good.

I finished reading Infinity Beach by Jack McDevitt this morning--stayed up reading until 3 a.m. but couldn't read any more, so when I got up I just made coffee and sat down and finished it. I really enjoyed it; although the first third of the book was a little slow, the rest was completely riveting. Somewhere not that long ago I was reading a discussion about writers who write characters of the opposite sex well--I find McDevitt to be very good at writing believable female characters. I have another of his books, Chindi in my reading pile but I think I'll read Scardown by Elizabeth Bear next.
