It took four months to nail down, but I finished the first chapter of my third book a week or so back and am getting the line edits in the mail today. Psyched but tired.

I’ve been baking old, warped 78s in the oven while I work.

In case you’re wondering how to flatten warped 78s, the answer is (a) clean them first, so dust and grime doesn’t get embedded in them; (b) place them on a flat surface, such as a cookie sheet or pizza stone + parchment paper; and (c) bake them at 170 to 180 for five to ten minutes, then shut off the oven.

I’m on #3 of 4 today. All are cheap 78s from the 1920s and 1930s containing Japanese folk music. So far, so good.
