We interrupt our regularly scheduled coverage of last Summer’s vacation to discuss a couple of things going on right now. First, today is November 4th. That’s peace day in the blogosphere. In honor, here’s my image:

Second, it’s November. For me, that means National Novel Writing Month, affectionately referred to as NaNo. I am, of course, writing a book. I should have at least 50,000 words of it done by the end of the month. I’ve done this five times before, including twice last year, and came up with at least the minimum number of words every time. Most of the time it’s by the skin of my teeth, and I’m still frantically typing on the last day, but I still generally manage. I hope to do a bit better than that this time.
The book I’m writing is the sequel to Zackly Right, which is a manuscript I’ve gotten a lot of complements on, but no publishing contracts for so far. It features a young ranching woman who goes on a simple vacation but gets dragged into a smuggling ring when she makes an unfortunate purchase at a regular gift shop. She is rescued by Zack’s friend, Flynn.

We now return you to our regular posts.
