Maybe I'll make someone feel better

Folks are posting 2007 accomplishments. Some of those lists are...long.

Then there's mine.

2007:

Revised ENDGAME (OK, I essentially rewrote it in 5-6 weeks, and was a panicky wreck that entire time. A year's worth of writing angst packed in 12% of the space).

Wrote proposal for GIDEON (hey, it ended well)

On tap for 2008:

Write and revise GIDEON
Write part of GIDEON 2
Whatever else fits.

The danger comes when I think, ok, I rewrote ENDGAME in less than two months. Then that becomes some sort of standard. Doesn't matter that it was a rewrite, not a stone cold start-from-scratch, and I did nothing else when I came home from work but write, *and* chewed up the bulk of my vacation in the process.

Then I start thinking, yeah, I can write two books a year. Maybe three. Then the urge to retire starts gnawing at my innards, and I get depressed.
