My manuscript for Uncertain Confidence is back from the editor and filled with red ink. I’m just shy of the half-way mark on the first draft of the next book in my Project Gene Assist series, school (complete with homework and scouting) resumes next week, and because apparently, I’ve lost my mind somewhere along the way, I’ve accepted new responsibilities at work.
So with all that going on, what do I do?
I get the heck out of Dodge, that’s what.
So greetings from the edge and the area where the land meets the sea. I’m not getting much of anything done, but that is exactly what a vacation is meant to be.
The wine is excellent, but the food even better. It’s difficult to write a post when there’s little reason to be inside – especially considering the beauty that is the weather.

Relax. Have fun. Enjoy the wine. And food. And wine. (Beautiful photos!) 🙂

Thank you! The new WIP is a hot mess of mismatched scenes, but what first draft isn’t?

How come you accepted more responsibility at work?
I’ve tried hard to avoid that, but I hope you get it all done 😀

It likely was either the fact I’m a glutton for punishment, being made an offer I couldn’t refuse, or some combination of the two.

that looks a bit like a couple of runways to launch missiles on unsuspecting colonies; are you sure you’re not trapped inside one of your books?

I’d say this break from reality and all its commitments is well-deserved. Enjoy yourself and, yeah – stay outside!
