So, life has been a hectic, happy, and sometimes horrific mess these past few weeks.  As you probably already know the release of Twisted Tales from a Wandering Mind went off... with a big hitch.  Anyway, you live and learn and I'm hoping to actually meet a December 9th Release Date for my upcoming, yet to be titled fantasy novella.  Oooooh... exciting.
I'm in the throws of what is working out to be another fun NaNoWriMo.  My story "Nim and the Empty Gem" is inching its way along somewhat slower than I'd like, but I really enjoy the premise I've built so far.  There are just all these parts that are well... cruddy.  I have a tough time ignoring that part of it all.  In any case, that is what re-writing is for!  Draft one, hopefully you'll see the light of day before the end of November.

To all my fellow participants, good luck and type quick!

What I'm reading: Neverwhere by Neil Gaiman and If He Hollers Let Him Go by Chester Himes

What I'm reading locally: Just finished Beyond the Tempest Gates by Jeff Suwak.  Fun little character novella.  It's only $2, give it a try.  http://www.amazon.com/Beyond-Tempest-Gate-Jeff-Suwak/dp/1938230442,

Soon I'll be diving into a much thicker novel called the Thousand Names by Django Wexler.
