I'm overdue too. Thanks for the dedication. I'm not sure what I did to deserve it.

I need to start doing reviews, LIFO.

Short summary: you need, not to cut, but to condense, and not by an awdul lot There are spots that feel flabby, and the reader carries the impression along, even where it no longer applies.

Love the staff-of-many-mages. And the ending.

Wonder what's in that book, and what you're clueing us in on?

I have a new chapter published in Mantle of Magic. I got everybody to the Pass. Now I need a beer to celebrate. About time that I published something new.

Your landlord would be doing backflips. The thought gives me no small amount of joy :-)

Oh, and it's Smaller Than A Saucepan. With 12 knobs on the front panel. In two rows. And with 18 binding posts. In three colors, and six bent columns.

But no Buttons to Push.

Oh, I'm alternating between making story notes, reviewing and doing Unrelated Things, and drilling and cutting and threading and grinding for the physical design of project TopOfStack. I'll have to find another photo hosting service so I can put some pictures up. It's gonna look like Cousin It (in Lovecraftian Color) crossed with an hour-slot TV show's idea of a mad scientist's doomsday lottery machine.

Somehow I think he's going to get off easy, no matter what you do to him. Derek Lowe's 'when you're locked in a self-storage unit with two rabid wolverines, why not add a third?' seems far too tame, a whole different order of mellow. Even if Ghen gets Most Seriously P**sed with him, it's not enough.

I wrote another page, NJC. Each one gets me closer to the end of this chapter. However, it is like pulling teeth to get me to sit down. I've made a rule...when I'm up and can't sleep, and three o'clock arrives, I'm required to get my booty out of bed and write for an hour. Thursday nights have been exceptionally productive.

Next, I need to have the Wolves debate the shape of Jaylene's shield. Then they are going to drop the staff into the magical black hole and we will all see what happens :-)

Poor Faulter. He's finally going to have things happen to him that he didn't instigate. And they are completely deserved.

I'm still around and causing chaos. Dangling modifiers. Gotcha :-)

Be sure to give njc lots of dangling modifiers.

I second Lynne's comments. I'm glad the new treatment is helping. You are, of course, missed by all.

I’m here. I just sleep for 22hours a day one week out of two. I need to make time for NJC’s new chapter. (In my book, I mean)

He’s been waiting patiently. I gotta get writing
