Man, am I glad that project's in the can! After months of helping Nettl by editing, formatting, and designing the cover as well as the promotional website, her book is finally published and up for sale. We've invested a lot of ourselves in this book, and I think it's worth it. It's titled, So Faithful A Heart - The Love Story of Nancy Storace and Wolfgang Mozart, and is an historical fiction. Check it out!...Last night we were invited to our neighbor's house for a dinner party, and we had a great time. His wife and two sons were there, as well as another professor at the theater department and his wife, and a singer, Tyley Ross, who was in Tulsa on tour. Matt had him over because he was to teach a workshop this morning at the university. He's a really nice guy and has a beautiful counter-tenor voice.
We were served three kinds of chicken: garlic, fennel, and rosemary, some rosemary garlic potatoes, bell peppers stuffed with tomato, mozzarella, and basil, and about a barrel of wine. Before dinner, we sat outside enjoying pate, cheese, and summer-like weather, sans mosquitoes! We all drank too much, but we were having such a nice time talking about the arts and such.
Today, we spent all day trying to upload the cover of the book. It was way too frustrating, but we got it at last. Now we're experiencing the let down that always comes after a book is finished. Now to get busy on mine...
