Hello Textpodders. I can see a pattern here. The professional writer, ghost blogger, polisher of other people's prose ... forgets to look out the window at her own backyard. SAD! But not so sad really, as my daughter has become a super gardener and urban agronomist (great word) and the backyard looks pretty good really. Thanks for the basil, Gracie. Best we've ever had. And the home economist in me puts it to great use. Pesto, yum. How versatile is it, and how easy?
So! News? Lots, really. Work is busy, and more varied than ever. Just as I like it, especially when I get to do fiction appraisals and edits. But here's the big one: hosting writers' retreats. More details to come but think of it: relax in a beautiful peaceful country venue, with space and time to write, mentored by your very own in-house editor. Oh, and she used to be a home ec teacher and can't wait to serve you all kinds of delicious and healthy foodie treats. I'd sign up for that for sure.
