Post bus ride post...

Salut,

sitting on the couch, I was... But I had to leave to bring my daughter to her religion class (don't ask... please... don't ask...). So I'm now sitting in the back of a big suburban church with my eldest studying verb tenses besides me while the little one is being brain washed... ho well...

I spent the bus ride back home to work on my novel (although my corporate MacBook didn't want to behave and I had to reboot it at one point... tempted to change it back to a real PC, grrrr). I was proof reading the initial chapters that I had already re-written.

I also spent some time in the morning ride to read comments I had received from friends of mine. One of them used to work in a police department and was telling me that some of the things I describe, from the police point of view, never really happen in real life... I guess it is the same as when I read a book (or watch a movie) where computers and or programmers are not really behaving like in real life... Ho well...

One thing I really need to work on though is the language level of my characters dialogs. My first incarnation wasn't very consistent and was too close to written language as opposed to spoken language... I'll try to fix this.

If you are curious to read the new version as I write it, so that you can provide me with comments, feel free to ask and I will more than gladly send you the pages that I have recently worked on...

OK, so if I want to complete it at one point, I might as well get one with it... So I will wish you a good night if you read this tonight (or a good day otherwise) and I might stop by to tell you a few words tomorrow morning... We'll see... Till then... Have fun!

BYE
MAD
