The Book is going well!

https://friendica.world/display/...

Bound in Smoke is going really really well. I'm in the last pass of editing before the MS goes to my editor. For me, this also means writing the last chapter. Word count is currently 76K. Typically, a complete novel (for me) comes in at about 90K. I'm at Chapter 18 so about half way. I should pick up the remaining word count by the time I'm done.

In non book events, some years back I rewrote a datawarehouse to get it out of SQL 2000. Once this project was public and got the support of my boss, I was told not to change any schema, ETLs, or queries which I did not except where existing SQL was not ANSI compliant or did not work in SQL 2008. Load time went from 3 hours to about 20 minutes. (In part because I was also able to cut out a convoluted system of moving data between servers that made no sense at all.) Then we moved to SQL 2019 and we needed additional updates, which I also did. Fast forward to now and I have convinced my boss that we need to look at updating how we load and how the actual SQL works. My preliminary redesign loads in about 15 minutes, and I think I can get it down to less than that. But now that I'm allowed to look at what we're actually doing, I have found errors in the SQL that do not fully load or update the data. Admittedly, I started with the portion that I knew was convoluted, but yikes!

Anyway, I really enjoy this kind of SQL work.

Future projects

https://friendica.world/display/...

As I close in on having a version of the WIP to send to my editor, I've begun to think about what's in the writing queue. I already have a cover for a historical titled Miss Fiona Harper's Night of Passion and I have a very solid idea for a novella with this story. Typically, I can write a novella in about 6 weeks. It's going to be fun story to write while the WIP is at my editor.

Progress is Made

https://friendica.world/display/...

I got so used to almost never posting on FB that I realized I need a schedule for posts here. I am closing in on being able to send Bound in Smoke to my editor. It's been a long time coming.

I hope everyone is doing well.

Bound In Smoke

https://friendica.world/display/...

This is the cover for the WIP (Work in Progress). Bound in Smoke is the first book of a new series for me and a new genre. It's going to be more in the Romantasy genre. My readers know this book is really, really late. I'm in the final stages of tidying things up so I can send it to my editor.

I'll say more about the book in the near future.
