Wave Without A Shore

Here’s the deal. It’s a free download. It’s only in bare-bones PDF, because it’s not finished. The picture—I borrowed from Jane, from her slide show. Has absolutely nothing to do with the story, understand. Do understand, too—it’s not finished. There is an outside chance it will never be finished. It could end up being a [...]

I’ve gotten several queries today about more books in this and that universe, and for Foreigner, the answer is good. One thing that has been so, so difficult is the number of times I have had to create a universe for some reason, then find that the publisher has been gobbled up by some oil [...]

I just received an e-mail that states that one of our very active members has passed away from a long illness. Deepest appreciation to a very warm and wonderful member of this site: we will miss her very much.

A little shorter than some. Not that much shorter. I’m happy with it now. Real hard to dissuade that crew from opening another can of worms, but we are finished! Jane is getting ready to put up another of the Ring books. She has not located a pen, but a new one is winging toward [...]

…I suggested a new food item and poisoned her. Then she lost her Wacom board pen and we have spent two hours turning the house upside down trying to find it. She hasn’t hit me yet, but I really wouldn’t blame her. 1. This strange guy is hanging about the stopsign on our corner as [...]

…wobbly, really wobbly. I’m tired of falling, understand: the bones have been jolted enough the last couple of weeks. So did I wear my crash pads today? No. I was too tired to wrestle with the damn tights, which hold them in place. I just skated in street clothes and hoped not to fall. By [...]

…haven’t got the trip pix up yet: this is the pond re-start, with greenhouse-let and wall on Jane’s blog; and Lynn’s trip on Lynn’s page.

First thing I did when I got home from the San Diego trip was hook a foot on the Christmas boxes in the mudroom and surf them down to the mudroom door, with attendant bruises. I did better this morning. I usually get up at 5 to begin my day’s work in peace and quiet: [...]
