The first half of my advance from Charlesbridge arrived yesterday, roughly 4 1/3 years after I began work on The Day-Glo Brothers. It’s by far the slowest money I’ve ever earned, but also the sweetest.

Congratz! See,now that’s why I haven’t quit my job yet. Two checks 10 months apart just won’t cut it with the mortgage company.

Congratulations! Wow, I guess I assumed you got the advance when the contract was finalized, not when the book was finalized! This business seems slower and slower all the time… But that must be one great check to get!

Thank you all. Celebrate? Well, I figured I’d be a good little writer and reinvest it. I’d thought I’d put it toward getting a full web site designed, but now it feels premature for that.
So, I might put it toward a laptop — we’re still a one-computer household, and that can’t last. Or I might blow it all on CDs and books pertaining to other biography subjects. Any other ideas out there?
