I’ve taken a small break from the novel to write a short. It’s called “Space Porn” (yep, all the spam filters are going to catch that one) and it’s about a teenaged boy who is more interested in deep space objects that pretty girls.
I’m also brushing up on my editing skills by reading Self-Editing for Fiction Writers: How to Edit Yourself into Print, by Renni Browne and Dave King. I try not to buy too many writing books, but this was money well-spent. Very down to earth and practical. No theory to bog you down and the inevitable preachiness is kept in check.
