Mar 7 06: the last word is still "sea."
Okay, I’ve just finished v2.0 of Optimistic Story. Its title is still “Albedo.” The new version—now with extra plot!—weighs in at 9,000 words as the SFWA counts. I think it’s a better story for all the agonies, but at two in the morning it’s hard to be sure.
If I can still bear to look at it when I wake up in, gosh, five hours or so, I’ll start firing it off at my brave and selfless volunteers. But I wanted to say something now, just for formality’s sake.
UPDATED: Nope, can’t do it. I don’t trust my 2AM brain enough to send it out without another re-read, and I’m off to Brooklyn for an all-afternoon rehearsal (w/ Mark Morris! Sugoi desu.). It’ll go out tonight.
