Over the weekend I added close to 2,000 words to The Candy Store Generation. That might sound like a lot, but it’s well below the total I wanted to complete. Sunday afternoon and early evening wound up going mostly to editing chapters already completed and making friends on Facebook. Consider that platform building.

I was able to finish one chapter, polish another, and begin to expand a third, one for which I had only about 500 words written. For those who are interested, I think I should give the table of content and where I stand on each.

1. Children in a Candy Story – mostly complete
2. Generational Traits – mostly complete
3. The Clinton Years, the Bush Years – mostly complete
4. Boomer Congress – mostly complete
5. Boomer Corporations – close to complete; need some more research
6. The O.P.M. of the People – close to complete; needs another example
7. The Panic of 2008 – completed this last weekend
8. The Wisdom of Thomas Jefferson – well along, maybe close to complete
9. The View from Nancyland – started; less than 1/4 written
10. Courts Supreme and Inferior – not yet started
11. The Wisdom of James Otis – well along; haven’t looked at in over a month
12. Are We a Socialist Nation? – well along; perhaps half done
13. The Next Decade – not yet started
14. Had Enough – well along; perhaps half done

So, there’s where I stand with it. Over the next few posts I think I’ll discuss several of the chapters and what I’m trying to say with them.
