• Silence is Golden

  Silence on the blog means I’ve been busy. How busy? I did the math and in twenty-one months I wrote 718,447 words and edited six manuscripts between three and fifteen times (the newest one only three times so far.) My last project totaled 105,689 words in fifty-three days. The most cumbersome one finished the first…

• I Did It!

  I survived Blog Free February, with the bonus of not using social networking sites. But to be fair, I must list my infractions.
