My big watermelon. Just over 43 lbs. I love it. And I canned more tomatoes. My garden is almost done and over with, btw. The vines have all withered, all but the pumpkin and watermelon. My green beans are going to seed, and I already collected some good seed for next year. Six to seven more weeks of mowing, and no raking leaves, adding that to the garden. I’ll be ready for next year.

While I get rather in-depth on the publishing front over on my Brain Turds blog, there’s more to explore. I’m also slowly editing seven novels. One is done, two is in progress, and three needs one more coat of polish. Four through seven are waiting. Number one needs me to look it over one last time, just to see if I missed anything. When last I looked it was at the peak of perfection, but that was almost two months ago. I gave it some space. But, once it’s done, it’s done. I’ll keep plodding along until all my past projects are ready. Over the next few weeks I’ll be talking to a few art galleries, seeing what I can do there. I’ll be producing a lot of art I should sell. I’m keeping a progress log, too. Of course I’ll share those entries. More next week.
