The book - almost done!

I rarely write here anymore. And, I guess that's because I've been writing so much elsewhere.

Other than a story in the very last issue of Playgirl magazine, I'm also still freelancing for other publications.

And, I'm about to finish the book!!

I just returned from a self-imposed month-long writing retreat. I was sequestered in a cabin in the mountains of North Carolina. I wrote and revised nearly every day, give or take one or two afternoons of boating and swimming.

And, now I have a manuscript. It still needs a bit more work and I'll want my nearest and dearest to take first crack at it. But, I'm on schedule to start sending it out to agents and editors this autumn.

I showed up to the work. And, it did (almost always) show up for me.

Thanks for sticking by me.
