I needed this for my mental health, or what passes for same. I have a book under contract that won't be released for, like, two years and my editor won't be sending me the first ask for revisions for months and meanwhile I'm spinning and tweaking and trying to revise Book 2, but what if the revisions to Book 1 make all that meaningless, etc., etc. It's like packing for a trip to somewhere that I know has very different weather, I just don't know what that weather is, so I keep putting things into a suitcase and taking other things out. Who knew this part would be so crazy making? All of this is a tortured way to thank you for this piece. And the viewing tips. I've seen some of Slow Horses and it's brilliant but we desperately need a sound bar for our aging TV because we're having serious trouble parsing the dialogue and my husband can't abide closed captions. I'll put the rest on our list.
Aww Jan! I I FEEL YOU!! That's so funny you liken it to packing bc my most common recurring anxiety dream is packing for a trip and being unable to find the right stuff to pack. Congrats on the book though!! And amazing you already have another in the works!! It's truly crazy making but I'm sure it'll be great in the end! :)
