I need to put my butt in the chair and write.
It would solve all my problems. And I don’t believe in writer’s block. I believe in laziness and loss of interest.
But instead I got excited this week about the opportunity to put one (or more) of my books on an Apple version of Audible. Wanted to offer my very best book, A Resurrection of Starlings.
But my dream faded by day’s end after I looked at it realistically. The narrators would have been AI’s. And I can’t imagine AI’s (at this point of time) knowing how to get the interludes (that’s what I’m calling the digressions and explanations of the story dotting my Jack the Ripper western) right. In print it’s formatted so the reader knows this is important to the story but not the story. itself. And I think I read it right, that after the Apple process is started, there is no way to proofread it, so to speak.
So. Maybe another of my books? And why not hire a narrator like the other eleven of my books that are on Audible?
Can’t afford it. And I don’t really have the time.
I need to be writing books. I’m stalled in the middle of my third Boo Radley mystery novels. I should never have stopped writing.
Word to the wise—don’t ever stop writing.
What am I reading this week? The second book in The Expanse series. What am I watching this week? The movies Twister, Dr. No, To Russia With Love, and the original TV series Star Trek.

It’s good.
