A difficult day of writing, switching from desktop at home to laptop at various destinations in Austin, then home to finish up the day’s wordage. Lots of backing and forthing–erasing whole paragraphs, re-writing.
In late morning, I heard through the grapevine that my editor had been let go–confirmed later by a phone call my husband picked up after I had left for the city. I thought Liz was excellent and very much enjoyed working with her. I’m being handed to another excellent editor, but parting is not sweet sorrow when you’ve had a good working relationship with someone and hoped to have it continue.
