The editor has finished her review of my book, "Great Heats" and not only did she cast her Chicago Style Manual at my effort, but she actually read it and liked it. Pretty good from someone who could be easily jaded by having to read words every day for a living and critique their authors.
I also have been given permission by the Portsmouth Murals Commission to use one of the murals for the cover of my book. While this is good news from a variety of standpoints, I also feel a heavier responsibility for the story to stand up to the vision of the original mural committee and to stand alongside the art of muralist Robert Dafford.
It will.
