Why did it take novelist @Egangoonsquad seven years to write “Manhattan Beach”? She makes 40-50 drafts per chapter and shows them to a writing group she’s been working with for decades.

This diver at @BklynNavyYard in 1909 stands on the cusp of a revolution. While this suit will allow him to reach 60 feet, soon new techniques and the Mk.V diving suit will let him dive 10 times deeper. Take a “deep dive” into diving at the Yard in @Egangoonsquad ’s #ManhattanBeach
