I should be researching Antarctica.
I should be working on my new website.
I should be writing about the Fair Tax on my other blog.
I should be reading Starfire by Stuart Vaughn Stockton.
What am I doing?
Reading and rereading the MLS forum boards.
I believe I have now made my selections for both premise and main contest. I will not go over them again until vote results are posted in December. Probably late-morning, mid-afternoon December 1.
I have picked my final six in the main contest. They are, in order of current interest:
The Last Apostle
The Sword of the Patron
Primary Source
Neil Before God
The Mysterious Calling of Mike Malone, and
Zinovy's Journey.
Having the first 500 words has made all the difference for me. I can now judge where I am comfortable, in the art of story-telling.
The most telling story is the comments of the participants. What a varied audience this contest has collected. Jeff the Publisher does not have an easy job. Some choice will undoubtedly offend someone. It must happen. But, I am sure we will all still respect him in the morning.
Now I must go resort my choices into an Excel file for later. Yes, that's just the kind of nerd I am.
