Dear faithful readers, I apologize for having been gone so long. It's amazing how summer can creep up on someone, but now summer is over and I am back to work, amidst furloughs and budget cuts as a State of California employee. BUT--what a wonderful, fun, amazing Introduction to Creative Writing class I have right now.
I've a class full of bright, responsive, sharp students--some of whom are English majors! I think English majors are brave souls in this day and age.
Mostly I've been querying with the book, outlining Book #2 (which I am going to at least start during nanowrimo). For those of you not yet in the know, nanowrimo is National Novel Writing Month, and more information about it can be found by clicking the title of this entry. My next book is going to be fiction (easier for me right now), but based on my life as a bellydancer. Yeah, probably chick lit, but I have been in a bit of a writing block and thought I would have some fun.
And there really isn't other news, except that I will be posting on a more regular basis. Even without posting, I know many of you kept coming back here, and for that I am most grateful. I am fine, I had no problems with the wildfires here in Santa Cruz (though recently, one came really too close for comfort), and of course I am still writing and teaching. There's no better life for me, in my personal and humble opinion!
