Yikes

Belted off two articles into the aether so far. Oh, please, please let them sell.

Will probably do a Supporting Cast piece for Pyramid tonight. There's a historical figure I'm going to fictionalise for the Shanghai book. They can have a non-fictional version. Huzzah.

The Shanghai Guidebook continues to grow. A bit. I've written parts on the White Russians and the Green Gang, plus the index of locations continues to grow. I re-read Masks last night to make sure of what was what (I note they've put in the Cathay Hotel on their map, even though it was yet to be built in 1926). Lots of bits I'd forgotten, though it does convince me that the Tomes & Magic section shouldn't be too hard to compile.

Need more ideas for articles. Unfortunately, I'm rubbish.
I went up to the Chinese embassy today, but unfortunately the visa section is only open from 9 to 12, so I'll have to go again tomorrow. I mooched back home, stopping only at the National Gallery to gaze lovingly at the Canelettos, and have basically accomplished bugger-all today. Though I have sent some query emails, I don't expect a positive response to any of them.

Well, back to the word processor.
Peace out.
