Part of the mythology surrounding writing involves the endgame: some day, not so many years from now, we’ll wake (around noon, perhaps 1 on a Sunday) from a pleasant dream of sympathetic Muses and adoring publicists, rise from our silk-sheeted bed and lazily wander to our marble-tiled bathroom.

The third review of The Third Sign is just in, and so far the news on the review front remains good.
