Reading the current manuscript on the trip—as I did, now and again—persuaded me I have to do a fast re-edit. This is the book I was working on when my mother passed away. I dropped a few stitches, as you might imagine, so I am going to do the things it...

Glug. No nicer than the RadCon Convention Crud. The best prescription tends to be Benedryl plus Sudafed and Advil. I’ve tried everything else, but this at least lets me breathe. I’m grumpy when I can’t breathe. I can tolerate a headache, but...

We left Spokane WA at about 6:30 am on Wednesday, having delayed a day to let a snowstorm roll over our route. My philosophy is ‘chase the weather, don’t run from it,’ because it will give you spectacular camera fodder. We drove to the Tricities...

Beautiful drive. Jane will have pix… Snow on all the mountains. We collected rocks from Oregon, Nevada, Eastern California, Donner Pass (CA) and had an absolutely spectacular convention (ConDor in San Diego, CA), in which we were royally treated. I have returned...

…and it is void of all my programs and settings. This is going to be a slow build. All the conveniences I have set up over the last 6 or so years are not here…not to mention my programs, like word processsing, etc. Win 7 is pretty doggedly determined you...

…nicer e-books in some formats. Some of the older formats (RTF, TXT and others) have some problems (gappiness and not displaying graphics) that she believes she can resolve. We aren’t yet ready to undertake revision of all our books, since Jane deserves...
