And I'm back just in time to take the handoff!
My eyes have consented to work a few more hours so here I am.

Working up the "print copy" of Book 2 -- the title page, copyright notice and dedication in addition to the text -- is coming along nicely. Right now, I'm going through the "almost final" draft of Book 3 looking for a suitable "teaser" to put at the end of Book 2 and doing a little editing besides. The eyes aren't happy but I'll live.

Still going through Book 3 looking for the perfect teaser. There is so much to choose from! At one point in the book, the cast is scattered over four different locales and it isn't until near the end of the book that everyone is in the same area. Yes, I managed to keep the action straight! It was a struggle sometimes but I managed!

Smiley Skywise is home and the lack of sleep last night has caught up with me. I'm heading out while I still can.

Everyone sleep well and be safe. Smiley Smiley

Morning. I'm here with a fresh cup of coffee and someone perched on top of the monitor staring at me.... No random, automatic screen sweeper yet but that could be on the way... Roll Eyes

I'm cold all over and my feet are freezing. I'm going to go wrap myself up and stick them in the bed. Hopefully that will warm me up. Thank goodness chili is on tonight's dinner menu! THAT will thaw me out if nothing else works!

Chubby just got tummy kisses for trying to jump up on the monitor and scaring the socks off of me... She'll deliver her revenge for that sometime later on.... Roll Eyes

*screams!* FOUND IT!!!!

And I've added it to the end of Book 2. It's a section that doesn't need any polishing so......................

Barring something unforeseen, like not being able to get online for some reason, Book 2 will be published on Monday.... Smiley

I have an 8 year old screaming for his computer time so I'm going to get offline and let him play games for an hour or so before bedtime. See y'all in the morning and have a great night everyone. Cheesy

Nite, hon.

Dinner is cooking and we'll be eating in about an hour. I've started the last read through of Book 2. I'll be quiet but I'll be around.

Finished the read through. Since I'd already proofed it, I concentrated on finding a specific formatting error of which I found a good number. The software would let me correct a lot of them so I'm pleased. I'll export the manuscript to Windows tomorrow and go through it again. I probably won't be able to correct anything but I can at least get an idea of how it will look. And now, there will be ice cream if it hasn't all been eaten!

Morning. I'm here and I need more coffee before I finish getting caught up. Hubby works again this evening so I'm in charge of taking Son to bed again tonight.

Morning. I'm here too and trying to wake up. The sun is "in and out" and I really think waking up would be easier if the sun would come out and stay out!

Chubby girl was VERY demanding in wanting snuggles so I was holding her on my chest for a bit while she had a short catnap... It would have lasted longer if the arm hadn't gone numb.... Roll Eyes

Okay. Weirdness ensues. I just "exported" Book 2 to Word and carefully checked it and it appears that the formatting error that occurred with Book 1 didn't happen with Book 2. Even weirder, I checked the Word copy of Homecoming and the formatting was correct in that copy too.  Shocked  So, I'm beginning to think that the formatting error is occurring when my copy is converted at Amazon so I'm going to leave my "Author's Note" in 'cause I have no idea how Book 2 is going to look after Amazon is through with it.
I need tea.....
