First the this and that:
I made the first cut of the Amazon Breakthrough Novel Award competion with my submittal of THE DEATH OF RAFAEL. A good beginning. This first cut was based on the ‘pitch’, which is a 300 word maximum description of the novel. I used the same as I have on my cover. The next cut of entries will be selected based on the first 5000 words of the novel.
This week I also received the interior proof of the novel and read it line for line, word for word, comma for comma… That was brute work. Amazing the stupid little mistakes that keep sneaking in. Gremlins, I say.
And now, New York.
I went to the 9/11 memorial at Ground Zero. What can one really say when standing on the grave of almost 3000 people?
And two more photos:
And since we always end with food…
