FULL BLEED: COME CLOSER AND SEE

(San Francisco Bay out to the ocean, from the Golden Gate, 2004) A couple days ago, I turned in final edits on my first novel. Okay, not my first novel, but the first novel I've written that will be published by someone other than myself. I'm sure there's a little cleanup work to do still, but predominantly finished.

And I'll tolerate them, to within certain boundaries, even if they're not done well.
