It was a cold day and the tiredness of the move and other stressors had caught up with me. I wasn’t feeling great, so I decided everything needed to be canceled so I could stay home with my little dog, rest, eat good food, and slowly and patiently work my way through the formatting nightmare one has to figure out before publishing a paperback. I’d had mixed experiences with this in the past, including hiring a professional. In the end, I’m happy to report I did a really nice job – but it wasn’t easy. I also ate three good meals (and a snack), took a very long walk in my beautiful neighborhood (sheltered from the cold by my mom’s vintage fur), and cleaned my dog’s ears. I’d say it was a productive day.
