But happy tired, as I have finished the beta read copy of Cawdor.

If you want to beta-read this novel, let me know.

The manuscript will be finished by week’s end. Then it’s off to beta readers.

My fingers are crossed.

For writers, Game-masters, and any who needs to manage a large amount of disparate data, I have been pointed at a great piece of software for the Mac. (I haven’t investigated if they have Windows version yet.)

The software is VooDoo Pad, and it operates as a self-contained no complicated install wiki. I am not a computer person so I needed software that pretty much just runs without a lot fo set-up from me. I have looked at wiki for quite awhile but never found one that was as easy to use as voodoo pad.

I got tipped off to it by my writer’s support group and I just love it. IT will make a great tool for keeping track of all the data generated in creating the fiction universes that my various novels take place in.

So, Thursday night I got the last of the chapter edits entered. Now I have six scenes to write and insert and I will be done!

So I’ve been looking for things to do in Vegas. After all my current plans will not eat up all my hours. Since I am not a gambler I plan to do very little ‘gaming’ in Vegas.  I am very happily married so I have no interest in the more sinful diversion of the city.

However I did find this….The Atomic Testing Museum. Oh no doubt I will go there!

Well, it turns out my friend Bear cannot make the Las Vegas trip with me. That is a shame this is certainly the sort of thing that is more fun with friends than alone.

However, I am still going. In fact the room has been rented and now the show tickets have been purchased. The only thing left to do is handle the transportation issues. As I am a new driver my sweetie-wife is not keen on the idea that I drive the whole way, while I am. It would be much cheaper than flying and with far fewer hassles.

Nothing has been settled and there is time to arrange all of that. The important thing is that I am going. Yeah!

This will replace my Universal Studios Megatour plans as my celebration for completing Cawdor.

Four more chapters to go and the beat-read copy of Cawdor will be ready,

I am going to Vegas! More to follow.

I have now entered the edits on 17 of the 25 chapters in Cawdor. Soon, I’ll be abled to hand it over to the beta readers and rest, stress-free for a while.

Apparently every time in the last fifty years the House of representatives has switched parties — that is control has switched to the other party — the senate followed suit. This is not true vice versa, The senate has changed with out the house changing.
