Story Update

For those following my story, I am working on it as fast I can.

Expect some big changes at the beginning of the year.

For starters I will no longer be posting on a daily basis, at least not until tax season is over. We have no baby sitter this year and I will be watching the kids at home. This means I will be severely curtailing business operations and may not have time to write as often as I would like.

There will most likely only be one story post a week and story posts will be up on Mondays. But the posts will be longer than previous posts and I may be able to post extra installments on occasion.

As for the story itself ... expect a lot of changes. Life, death and betrayal, and that is just the first chapter.

Christmas

I seriously meant to post some kind of Christmas greeting yesterday, but so busy. It was a much better Christmas than I expected. It has been a brutal year and a December has been doing its best to get in a few last minute digs before surrendering. We lost my mother in law in late November, my oldest friend lost his wife of twenty years, quite suddenly, just a few days before Christmas. My wife's cousin lost her husband on Christmas day. No warning at all, she tried to wake him up from a nap and he was gone. Just like that.

And the flu has made its rounds in my house this week. Persistent bug too. I rarely get sick and this one had me floored for a day.

And now here I am trying to wish my readers a Merry Christmas and I screw that up and miss posting it.

But despite everything, it was a good, Christmas. That day, when our family was together and we were able to set our troubles momentarily set aside and just enjoy one another's company. But I will be praying that 2010 is much better than its predecessor.

Story update ... again

I have been working on the next book in this story. In reviewing the unposted material written so far, I determined it all to be complete and utter crap. I have scrapped it and am starting over. So far the new material is flowing much better and looks to coming along well.
