Another successful week has come and gone. I have begun the research into my fourth book (working title: BlackBox Enterprises). The research has begun to illuminate the path the book will need to take in structure and content. I am excited to begin work on it soon. I also finished reading two books: The Heart of A Dog by Mikhail Bulgakov and The Sign of the Four by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. I have read Bulgakov before (The Master and Margarita), but now I have chosen to read the majority of his work (next to be added to my ever expanding reading list is The Fatal Eggs). My first Sherlock Homes (Sir Arthur Conan Doyle) was fantastic, and I decided to read all four of the full length novels in sequence. Both books (Bulgakov and Doyle) were widely different in style and fantastic to read. Also, I wrote two more pieces: Redirect and Smiles. Progress is happening on multiple fronts, but I am personally getting tired of submissions and writing cover letters for my short stories. Alright, time to get back to work.
