Walked the kids to school today then came home and got right down to business. Business today was completing my application for the MFA I intend to begin in the autumn. I am still assembling the "package" - transcripts, letters of reference and a portfolio sampling some of my work but the application itself is done.
While putting together "the package" I rewrote a chapter in my novella Patriot. I needed to clean it up and flesh it out and I am very pleased with the finished result - so pleased, in fact, that rewriting Patriot to novel length has moved up the priority list. Root of Evil still needs to be finished and The Witch has been waiting too long and Gerry has barely stumbled out of the gate but Patriot is beckoning.
I guess I have a lot to do...
