I finally have two weekends off (ish!)
I have also finally finished Henry's story and have begun the final novel in the Before the Blood prequel. Based on the time it took to write the previous novels, I anticipate at least a year before I'm ready for an editor.
This novel will have twenty chapters instead of the others, which have ten, but the pace is brisker and all the research is worked out, so I'm expecting the writing to progress at a faster rate than the previous four novels.
Saturday morning and early afternoon is for writing. And then...
I also plan to finish Bertrand's second book tomorrow afternoon, as it doesn't need much now.
And I also plan to correct the typos in Cornell Dyer and the Missing Tombstone tomorrow afternoon, too.
After those things are done, Rebekah and I have a list of work for the website, which we are planning to tackle after items one and two are done.
Anyhow, that's the view from a Friday of deadlines to first fulfill. After I file three stories and plot my Sunday pages, I'm planning my stories for the rest of the month. I've had the joy of working with two interns, so I'm getting some projects ready for them, too. It's been a very satisfying week.
Somewhere when the work is done, I'm offering feedback on the first chapters of a friend's novel.
And here we are.
The health, faith, and arts and entertainment calendars: where to find them? Under the sections tab on the left hand side of http://www.theherald-news.com/. Click on "features" and the topics drop down. Assembled by moi.
Gotta Do It, also by me, runs each Sunday in the People section.
Feature briefs for Monday (pets), Tuesday (health), Thursday (faith), Friday (arts and entertainment), and Sunday (people) are also edited (texted and photos) by the lady of this blog, but only the stories have bylines. I do try to post new content daily.
Another option: I do post the briefs and calendars on Twitter during the week, so you're welcome to follow me at @Denise_Unland61. And of course, I post curated content relating to the BryonySeries at @BryonySeries.
Thank you for reading The Herald-News.

Joliet-area residents share the best advice they received
from their fathers
Children, being children, often don’t appreciate their

An Extraordinary Life: Former Herald-News employee loved his
community
John B. Lux followed his father into a publishing career
“He was a great dad, no question about it,” Tom Lux said. “He
was a teacher. He was patient. He helped us learn on our own. He helped us
