The blog has been very quiet lately. Despite my best efforts, I can’t get my cat to write posts for me.
If I haven’t been blogging, what have I been doing?
Writing and editing books. Yeah, I know. Who does that?
I have one book that should be ready to send to my agent soon and another that will be ready hopefully by November (before the madness of NaNoWriMo because I will be doing that again). I have a third book that I may burn in frustration, but I haven’t quite given up on it yet, and a novella that I plan to start sending out in August.
But that alone isn’t enough to keep a blog in the black like this.
As I mentioned in my previous post Life Changes and Getting Comfortable with Spiders, I’m also getting my house ready to sell. This involves packing,
painting,
and many other frustrating, stressful and time-consuming tasks.
As if that weren’t enough, we had our last big 4th of July party at this house. Along with the half-day party, 45-minute fireworks show, and live singer at intermission, we added a fire troupe performance by Dragon Steps to intermission this year.

Add to that the simple tasks of life—apparently sleep is a necessary thing—something had to give. So what haven’t I been doing?
You guessed it. Blogging.
