Actually, it wasn't dreary earlier, but it's turned that way late in the day. We even had a little rain and it's pretty cold outside. I'm glad I got my walk in early, because I have to go to Columbia tomorrow which means I may not get exercise or much else done.

I did, however, manage to get a LOT done today. Wrote my pages, then worked on several miscellaneous projects with loose ends. I'm trying to get really caught up on things before we got to Texas in November. So far so good...

My friend up the street is having a garage sale tomorrow, so I took some stuff down for it, stuff I don't think will sell in my booth. Then went to a consignment store downtown and picked up a few Christmas things, also for my booth. I can't believe people are thinking about Christmas already, but evidently it's a popular time for collectors to buy. So I want to stay on top of that...

The book is really coming along--I'm close to 200 pages and excited about being that far along, finally. Today on my walk I actually had an epiphany about how to tie various story lines together so they make a nice collage. Suffice it to say, things seem to working.

I'm waiting for A Texas Bounty's POD to be posted on Amazon, should be soon, and then I'll provide the link. Also, found out today my essay got accepted to Amazon Shorts program, so once that's up, I'll post a link to it as well. So, lots of writing progress, which is VERY exciting!!!
