Today's highlight was lunch at ZTejas with BA, author of the Zack Proton series (Aladdin, 2006-). I had herbal tea and the chicken verde soup, which tasted more like sauce.
On the office cleaning front, the shelf against the north wall is now organized. The top shelf features file folders for current projects, fresh spiral notebooks, and my archaic overhead transparencies (I'm all about learning PowerPoint).
The bottom shelf holds various research books, including: Spies by Clive Gifford (Kingfisher, 2004); Hollywood Gothic: The Tangled Web of Dracula from Novel to Stage to Screen by David J. Skal (Faber and Faber, 2004); Texas Ghost Stories: Fifty Favorites for the Telling by Tim Tingle and Doc Moore (Texas Tech University Press, 2004); Vampires, Burial, and Death: Folklore and Reality by Paul Barber (Yale University Press, 1988); and Blood Read: The Vampire as Metaphor in Contemporary Culture edited by Joan Gordon and Veronica Hollinger (University of Pennsylvania Press, 1997).
Well, I'm not calling myself SpookyCyn for nada.
