Mellow at midweek

Won't worry about finishing the syllabus until tomorrow, which lightens up today. Reading, listening to audio book, make scrapple (escaped me yesterday). Getting impatient for POD drafts so I can circulate manuscript for feedback -- have this idea I should send all four out at once so they might come back together. False premise.

Be in this part of the process so many times over so many years that I find myself curiously waiting for the postpartum bomb of brief depression to go off. Hasn't yet. Always does, it seems, a moment when you wonder if anything you wrote is even worth a shit. Fortunately it goes away and sometimes even returns to the earlier hallucinations of genius.

Well, I need some breakfast and it can't be scrapple. Hmm.
