HI!


Okay, it's been a WHILE since I wrote y'all. Things have been a little bit nuts in my life.

Allow me to explain.

 

January 2 I fell. Badly. Wound up doing the side splits, putting out both hips, messing up both knees, and not doing the ankles and feet any favors either. I will be fine. (Thank God for Yoga), but it's going to be a fairly long recovery, and it basically took over my life for a while.

 

This put me behind on the deadlines (severely), in both the writing and the day job, as well as all that household stuff that I take for granted being able to do and suddenly couldn't.

 

Fortunately I have good friends, a good family, and a great sense of humor. I am now WELL on the way to recovery, am walking pretty well, can do stairs and am FINALLY starting to figure out where the heck I left off before this all started.

Prizes - yep, still have them sitting there looking at me reproachfully. I now have to re-read the old newsletters and lists of winners to make sure who gets what for how many cookies. I want to come up with some super spectacular THANKS FOR BEING PATIENT present for y'all, but I haven't figured that out yet. Maybe a short story in the next newsletter, just for y'all would make it up to you?

 

I am almost finished with Celia and did finish the edit pass for THE EXILE: BOOK 1 OF THE FAE. WOOT! And the cover art is in process and sounds like it will ROCK!

 

And while I am not up to travelling and conventions yet, Cathy will be going to RT in New Orleans and will be available to talk, sign books, etc. Be sure to stop by and say HI.

 

I have taken down my personal website for the nonce. First, I haven't been able to keep it up the way I should. Second, I was getting NO visitors. None. Zippo. Seemed silly to even have the blasted thing if nobody cared.

 

SO, rather than have a contest (for which I would have to mail out more prizes and possibly incur more delay for which I would again be apologizing-sigh,) for this newsletter I have a set of questions.

  • Do you visit author websites?
  • If so, what do you look for in a website? What would you want to see?
  • If not, what is the best way for me to get in touch with you? Is the newsletter the best forum?
  • Should I put it back up or kiss it goodbye?
  • If I were to write a short story just for you guys, would it make up for me being so late on everything?
  • What do you like best in a book-action, romance, suspense, humor?

 

Answers to [email protected] with OUCH! In the re.

 

Next newsletter I should have actual NEWS-good writing stuff seems to be on the brink of happening.

 

In the meantime, be good, be careful, and thanks for your patience. And a puzzle, just for the heck of it.
