State of the Ape XXVII
Once more, thank you for your prayers.
I finally got my blood work done. My PSA went up for the third time in a row, this time taking a big jump from 0.16 to 0.356. On an absolute scale, this is not a big deal yet, since any below 4.0 is considered normal; but it does look like things are starting to go south again. I saw my oncologist today and she said we’ll keep up the current treatments.
On a brighter side, my ENT doctor seems to have put the kibosh on my vertigo for the time being; no attacks in over a month.
We’re getting closer still with Zoe. I’ve gotten preliminary sketches for the cover illustration and the interior map and they look very good.
I’ve FINISHED revising Edwina 2! The next step is to get the cover illustration and a map for that book. I restarted Edwina 3, The Last Earl of Fenshire. I can salvage some of the incomplete first draft, but there’s a lot of rewriting and rethinking to be done, so it’s almost like starting from scratch.
