Almost St Patrick's Day
Day before St Paddy's...and Florida is a bit nippy! 43 this morning around 6:30 AM. Didn't walk...Carolyn and I went to the gym without braving the chilly temps. It's okay to chicken out sometimes. I think even Grandpa Burman would agree with me! In fact I think he would insist we head down to Federman's for donuts or off to Tina's for pie!
Working on the 27th story of The Falls. As usual, the characters are busy whispering in my ear what they believe I should have them do and say. Makes it a bit handy. Also is the reason I've never...knock on wood...had writers' block. I simply write down the suggestions.
The 19th story in the series, The Falls: Prodigal Twin, is now out as a paperback at Barnes & Noble, Amazon.com and CreateSpace.com. Working on editing the paperback proof of the 20th, The Falls: Inferno, and getting the 21st, The Falls: Bad Penny, getting into the template for CreateSpace.
Have had problems with squirrels. One got up under the hood of my car and chewed wires...resulting in over $700 in repairs and an almost accident taking it to the dealer. Trying to humanely trap the little bugger so I can take him miles away and let him go. In the meantime, we managed to trap five rats. Ugh. Had no idea we had any around. But then, it is Florida and we a re around palm trees, and lakes. Not a rat fancier.
Okay, time to write the next chapter. I write a good deal better than I 'small talk'. Someone asked if I still use my standup desk. Always. I really think it makes a real difference in how my back feels and I burn off some calories at the same time.
Hoist a pint tomorrow, wear green or orange and be Irish! (I'm actually English, Scottish, Irish and Welch) May the dragons watch over you...
