Busy, Busy

It's been a very productive week workwise for me. I had an article and two reviews due this week and got them all in ahead of schedule--go me! Two more reviews to go and I'm finally caught up with the backlog. Both are SCE eBooks so those will be quick reads.

Two more tapes to go and all the stuff from Shore Leave will be transcribed. I filled seven tapes while I was there. Those articles are due on varying dates over the next three months so there hasn't been any big rush to get them done but I'd still like to get them out of the way so it's over and done with. Once the transcribings done, the writing is the easy part.

Next week I've got an author interview to do for a piece due on the 25th and the SciFi Pulse site just asked me to do an interview for something for them as well. I've just agreed to do a book column for them six times a year starting next month and also to provide a minimum of four other articles per year. Ian's a really nice guy and I enjoy working with him.

Since I was such a good little girl this week I can enjoy a guilt free weekend. We're heading up to Valencia tomorrow to spend the day with some old friends. Saturday morning Andrew's doing his last volunteer day for the summer at the Hollywood Entertainment Museum and in the evening we'll be going to an LA Zoo members event so we'll have a chance to see how much all the babies we've been watching have grown since we were last there in June.

Sunday is the annual USS Angeles pool party at Dave Masons place in Oxnard, a summer highlight we always look forward to. I wonder how many people we can cram in the hot tub this year?
