Thursday Morning Ramblings


The last month has flown by.  I can’t believe it’s already June 7.  I realize I haven’t been updating the blog as often as I would like, but I’ve been extremely busy between the farm and book four.  There’s been great progress on both fronts.  We’re finally getting close to launching our first phase of production on the farm, and I’ll try to provide an update on that as soon as it happens, probably sometime next month.  It’s been a long, uphill climb, but things are really coming together on the property.

Book four is rolling along.  I finished chapter five last night and will dive into chapter six tonight.  So far, I’m pleased with the manuscript and like the flow of the story.  Everything is coming together the way I envisioned it, and I’m still pleased with the energy to the book.  It feels good to write, and the words have been pouring out fairly well.  As I’ve often said, I’m a slow, plodding writer, but so far this summer, I’ve nearly doubled my normal daily page output, so hopefully the rough draft will be finished on schedule.

That’s all for now.  Time to go outside and get some work done.

Thursday Morning Ramblings


May has been a great time for the series.  It started with the free promotion at the beginning and has continued throughout the month.  Again, a huge thank you to everyone who shared links and helped out during the campaign.  We’ve reached more people this month than ever before, and hopefully that momentum will continue to roll throughout the summer.  I also attended the convention in Morristown and have had several online interviews.  For today, I thought I’d share links to some of the reviews and interviews, just in case you missed them.
