Ugh, being without a computer for days was hard! I use it for so much. I feel like I have the rest of my brain back now. Unfortunately, I don’t think the repair solved the problem…so I may have to take it back in for the next level of intervention. But I’m not sure. It

I braved the muck and rain to harvest some brave strawberries today… Other than that, the garden is getting along without me. Drowning out there, I suppose. So I was forced to stay in and work on Hobgoblin. After some epic cat-vacuuming behavior, I got down to it, and added a very necessary scene to

No luck on the London house-trade queries so far, though I did get an offer from Brazil. 🙂 Which, tempting as it looks (sun! beaches!), isn’t quite going to work for attending the con in Brighton. It does lead to all kinds of interesting fantasies about future house trading and travel, of course. For a
I’ve been sort of puttering in the same chapter of Hobgoblin for a few days now–mostly thinking about it, making a few notes–because I knew there was a problem and I didn’t know how to fix it. In fact I hadn’t quite defined the problem…I was getting closer, but it was remaining elusive. But then

I have finally found some time to work on Hobgoblin, yay! I’ve edited up through chapter 6. Of course, it’s not till chapter 8 or so where it starts to really need work, but this feels like good progress. Also I got some more anthology stories edited and out; not quite halfway done with those.
Oh my gosh you guys, I was so sleepy last night when I posted, I forgot to tell you about the horrible discovery I made about my next-door neighbor!! Actually, let me backtrack, because what I learned also helped me solve a mystery that had been driving me nuts. Ever since the weather got a
What do May showers bring? Muddy yardwork, at least. But it makes the weed-pulling easier. 🙂 I miss that hot weather we had! Though I can’t argue with getting the garden watered for free. I have about a billion strawberries that are allllllllmost ripe. Just a day or two of sun should do it. Sun?
