Been a few months since I wrote one of these. What's going on in February? Hmmm.... let's see.... 1. Turned in short story for the Ghost Romance anthology. Now working on the edits. 2. Ms. Agent sent proposal for second series to Ms. Editor. *fingers crossed* 3. Working on proposal for next two Alex books. (Man, this series is getting good!) 4. Writing...writing...writing...writing...writing... 5. More writing.... 6. Yep, still writing... 7. I took over a friend's fiction workshop last week at the local university. Spent an hour or so talking about agents, query letters, and publishing in general. The students are either inspired or terrified. Not sure which. Either way, my job is done.  Best part about taking over the class was that I got to see one of my fave professors again. I loved his mythology class and he was always a lot of fun to just hang out with in the hallway and talk. *sigh* There are times when I miss it all. Then I remember the homework....and look at the mountain of projects sitting on my desk now.... So what's up with y'all?  |

Just slogging through another Cleveland winter. Although I shouldn't complain - most of the really nasty stuff has mostly missed us. My kids were in town last weekend for my friend's memorial and it was really great to have them all home. This weekend I did nothing but veg, watch TV, and fool around on facebook. I also watched "The Social Network" and really liked it. Great score by Trent Reznor. Oh, and I dreamt of Crab Rangoon. Wonder what that means??

Getting impatient for the second little one to come out...well, that's more about the wife, but she's making sure that I'm living it right along with her  Beyond that, just working, writing and trying not to get buried in snow... |

As for the dream...I think it means you've been spending too much time listening to T' and Deb.  |

Sorry about the weather Skitty...on the bright side, we seem to be getting it for you! The official date is March 6th...Hunter came on his due date so, as a second one, we won't be surprised if he's early...She'll be happy if it is! |

March 6 isn't all that far away, but I can understand her wanting to "pop" sooner. I don't have kids but every pregnant woman I've ever known just looked so uncomfortable the last few weeks. I'm a wuss. I'd never make it.  |

Thanks for the vote of confidence, but babies and small children scare me. I'd rather deal with teenagers, believe it or not. |

I can handle them. It's the crying, the biting, the slapping, the name calling.... wait, now I'm confused. |
