All Work and No Play . . .
Means I'm getting something done.

I don't feel like a dull Jack, anyway.

My edits are complete, as is my synopsis (sort of. It'll need another going-through in a few days). Now it's time (gulp) to write a query letter to the agent first on my list.

Sort of. I'm putting it off to re-vamp my website. It hasn't been modified since 2012. I figure I need to make necessary modifications and updates before I query any agent, because (perhaps) if they're interested, they'll check out my website (doubtful, but hey, one needs to be prepared).

Since I'm now tackling the mainstream market -- as much as it pains me to do so -- I need to eliminate the blatant Christian elements. I still mention my faith and its importance to me, but it's more subtle now. Like it or not, a lot of readers of Science Fiction frown on in-your-face Christianity. I don't want to alienate them before they take a chance on me and my stories.

That's all I have for today. I hope you all have a wonderful Easter.
