Hey. Your book is sounding increasingly interesting. I really like the bits you post up, but that's no surprise, your use of language was always what I liked best about your writing.
I think you should get that grant you applied for. There are few authors I've read with your gift for language, and that should outweigh any prejudices the panel might have regarding genre writing. On the other hand, I have heard that the grants process is less than objective, so who knows.
My second book is a struggle. I think it's better than my first, but it's going at the speed of one paragraph per day or so, which is frustrating. Life keeps taking over.
