I haven't blogged in ages, I know - I'm around, at least I think I am, but I'm completely buried in work. My book manuscript's due on August 31st, and I'm continuing to spend every spare minute working on it, as several long chapters need a lot of revision. In addition, I've got an HNR deadline pending, a few book review commitments, plus there's my full-time work at the library...
Anyhow, postings here will be extremely sporadic for the next couple of months until the book's finished and turned in; these days I have very little time to read blogs, let alone write in one.
One bit of good news: I recently finished an article on contemporary historical fiction for Bookmarks Magazine, as a followup to the piece I wrote for them in Jan/Feb 2006. Look for it on newsstands this November. I'm anxious to see the layout version, as they did such a fantastic job with the last piece I wrote for them.
More eventually, when things slow down a bit.
