Back to whining. Lost the last chapter of Paladin. No, I have no idea where it is. I am re-writing. Apparently hard drive and graphics card are going out of computer. I am sending it to a friend next week so he can rebuild it. He’s using used parts so it will be affordable. I…
It still needs work, but I think the bones are coming together. I just wish it read more like a story and less like a laundry list. “Patience, Grasshopper.” “Yes, Master. Grant me patience…NOW!” Bonus points, I finally have a name for Gentyl, Caoimhe. It’s Irish for gentle and pronounced Kee vey. Go figure. I’ve…
Well, I was really good and posted some humorous things to even out the whining. Guess what that means, boys and girls? Time for more whining.

Someone mentioned, don’t remember who, agents and editors may be lurking in the blogs and if you aren’t prepared…
I’m in countdown mode on a few different fronts. 23 weeks to Surrey International Writers Conference. Several different things I need to accomplish before I can go to that. 22 weeks until Will’s birthday. Since his laptop is overheating badly, I am working on getting him a new one to take to Iraq. 13 weeks…
