First and foremost--my 'new' website is on hold while I grapple with the troubling reality of Aspen Mountain Press. As my beloved Men of Smithfield books are under contract with AMP and my MOS series has been removed from at least one third party vendor, I have no choice but to take action.
Secondly--After nine months of hoop hopping, tomorrow I sign my construction loan. **insert flailing Kermit arms and popping champagne corks** We move on the fifteenth of this month into a temporary housing situation (MY MIL'S) and I'll be homeless. Naturally, I'm not packed. Why? Read on...
Third--Simple Gifts goes to my editor at Musa today **more Kermit, more champagne**. Simple Gifts is a very short Christmas story and, er, it features a wee bit of origami. You'll love it. Buy my book on November 25th from Musa Publishing. You'll be glad you did.
Next--I'm headed to Asia on the 25th for two weeks with G. The 25th thing is screwing up the 15th thing, the 7 thing, and the book thing. A little side note on this--I had to change my occupation from 'writer' to 'housewife' on my visa application. I'm not ashamed of being a housewife, thank goodness, but I am a little miffed that I can't go into main land China and distribute my revolutionary gay romantic comedies. Sad face.
Finally--Despite the stresses and the woes of the Men of Smithfield, I feel extraordinarily blessed to have my friends and family, my life with G, and all of you. I'm ending this update on an upnote-- with a few random photos from my September travels. Life is good.

Best of the Best: You.
I can't keep up with all that's going on in your life, so here's a big cyber champagne toast to it all. ::clink::
Oh, how very, very frustrating about MOS! :( Here's hoping that gets sorted out soon.
Have fun on your trip!!
Oh man, you have a lot going on right now. =) Hugs and I'm sorry you won't be able to sell your gay romantic comedies. I think the people of China would have enjoyed them.
I also hope that everything gets sorted out for you too!
*cough*
clears throat noisily...
You don't bring me flowers anymore.
