Again, I know the world is a mess, and my shower isnโ€™t working. But top of mind is that I just received the next Vivien Brandt mystery back from my editor and I can only believe Iโ€™m a fabulous writer until I open that fileโ€ฆ

The world is in bad shape but for a moment, as I looked at the cover for my next book, I was satisfied. We have to enjoy those moments.

A friend of mine who lives in Austin saw this at a bar and said she had never been so offended by something she 100% agreed with.

My old country is led by a pedophileโ€™s buddy and making slimeballs judges. But when I took my aching shoulder to Pilates yesterday and the instructor decided to start with shoulder exercises, I suddenly realized it was all about me.

At that weird point where Iโ€™m waiting for edits to come back, a cover design to come back, and newsletters and conferences (and sadly, tax returns) that must be attended to.

Oh for those halcyon days of novel writing.
