Restless night’s sleep. Up later than usual, but not too late to put some good edits in on the newest story. Figure to have a halfway decent reader draft by Friday, and along with “Eyes Wide Open” two fresh pieces to push into submission.
Think I’ve figured out where to go with the long piece, too. Guess some time off, pruning and cleaning up the yard must have given me the head space I needed to move things along.
Long trip to Denver today. Left around ten, not home until close to three. Wouldn’t call it a fun time, but certainly productive. Where we go from here, not sure except to say it won’t be to Mexico anytime soon.
Look to finish Dispatches tonight and start in on something new. Maybe the Doerr book. Tomorrow, back to reality.
