Lagoonfire proof, cosmos and bees
Oct. 20th, 2020 05:10 pmThe mail brought a welcome item--my uncorrected proof for LAGOONFIRE!
I must go through it carefully and root out typos! The Polity approves of rooting out errors.
Last book featured a deity who wasn't ready to be retired. This one features a bunch of retired gods. How do they spend their time? How does the Polity treat them? You can learn a lot about a government by how it treats its decommissioned deities.
I've been spending too much time just working, but when I'm not, I step outside to enjoy the cosmos ... by which I mean the flower called cosmos, but hey, it's part of the bigger cosmos, so both things, actually.
Seems like each blossom held its own bee:
By the time I got those photos, late-ish today, the bees all seemed to be sleeping, but this morning they were active, flying blossom to blossom, but always politely socially distancing when they saw a blossom was already occupied.
It's past 5 pm, local time. Have an autumn brew.
