I worked on novels this week.

The Steampunk one is still on hold, the cover won't be worked on yet.

I closed up ch 3 and started 4 in my dragonpunk, steampunk historical Urban Fantasy fusion, No title yet not even a working one. I actually started it at least five months ago got to 80% of the third chapter stopped for other things. It takes place just as we enter WWI.

Did a bit of work on "Learning CurveX2"--finished revising chapter two and deciding if I should split it or not. I think I know where, but if I did I would have to write a action scene for the new ending of ch 2.
