I must be a crazy nut to think a Mad Men-style novel for kids set in a 5th grade classroom in the year 1974 is commercial. Then again, I wrote a 42,000-word novel about a future U.S. President, but only covered the first ten years of his life. What kind of freakish novels are coming out of my head and why the heck am I having so much fun writing them? That's what I was wondering this morning before I hit the keyboard hard. I wrote throughout the morning and in the afternoon I spent a few hours clearing off all the piles of papers, Christmas cards and other stuff that had accumulated since mid-December. Now the workspace is relatively clean. Can't wait to get back at it tomorrow!
