10 - Still Life with Galleys

Yesterday's photo once again not the most exciting image every recorded, but it's big around these here parts -- yesterday was the day that my man received the galleys for his second book, which will hit booksellers in May.  Galleys, it now seems, look a lot like the actual, eventual book -- other than the words 'uncorrected proof' on the cover.

I noticed these on his nightstand. It's now time to read through for final corrections and changes, but I think the bottle of Scotch and the Pepto Bismol tablets really are what speaks most eloquently about this writer's life still life.
