State of the Ape XXIII
HAPPY EASTER! HE IS RISEN!
Thank you all for your prayers.
No visits to the dentist this month. It’s amazing what you can get used to (when there’s no alternative).
More blood work this month. Everything was perfectly normal (except glucose, which was a little high; but it’s always been a little high, and it’s actually dropped two times in a row). My PSA went up again from 0.12 to 0.16, but my oncologist still says not to worry.
The dizzies have kept off.
I finished Zoe 13 (hooray!) and am now in the process of revising all 13 stories, which mostly involves removing inconsistencies and doing rewrites to earlier stories to tie them forward. So, we’re getting close.
I got stuck during the Zoe revisions on Monday 3/25, so put them on hold while I reworked an old short story for an anthology call I stumbled upon, just making the deadline by 5 hours and 18 minutes.
The Murder at Minstrel Manor launch has been a little rocky. Amazon wouldn’t display the paperback at the list price of $13.99; only 3rd-party sellers trying to gouge the public with prices of $23 and up. I finally resolved it by uploading a paperback edition directly to Amazon.
