It’s been a pretty good week. The copyedit of The Waves Burn Bright is done and dusted and I’m feeling a lot happier with the text. At this point in the cycle I’m torn between wanting to get the book out into the world as soon as possible and wanting to hang onto it, to keep revising and redrafting. Fortunately it has to be typeset so it’s out of my hands.
My latest piece for the Japan Times, a look at Kezaburo Oe’s The Silent Cry is in the paper and online here.
Right, I’ve got a reading list as long as the line to kick Donald Trump in the nuts and some editing to do for Shoreline of Infinity, so back to work.
