As mentioned, I’m incredibly busy right now, and do not have time to answer many questions or all comments.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 I must spend at least two hours a day on the music.\u00a0\u00a0 More if I’m still having problems by Saturday. \u00a0 Orchestra rehearsals start next week and I will have rehearsals Wednesday, Thursday, Friday and then the performance Saturday and two services to sing Sunday.\u00a0 Plus the rest of the things that must be done, including writing-business stuff, home stuff, and work on the new book.<\/p>\n

Typos and other errors of fact\/continuity submitted with a page number may (no promises) be changed in the paperback next year.\u00a0\u00a0 I’ll send the list to Editor.\u00a0 They can’t be changed in the hardcover, unless it sells a wildly unlikely number of copies.\u00a0\u00a0 I jot down the ones I notice, but I don’t catch them all (obviously!)<\/p>\n
Comments that ask one question answerable in brief are more likely to be answered than ones that ask several questions, or ones that would require a lengthy answer.\u00a0\u00a0 See paragraph one.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Remember that all books are restricted in length, and decisions about what goes in and what doesn’t are based on both writer and editor opinions about what is essential for the story arc.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
