December 2017
More than a year since my last post. As is traditional, reviewing the last year and making resolutions for the coming year. Weight loss, exercise, and better communication top my list for this coming year.
Happy Holidays and Best Wishes for the New Year!!!

A Book A Month
I'm looking at GIDEON'S MARCH by John Creasey writing as J.J. Marric. The 1994 Chivers Press version of this 1962 book has a foreword by Donald Rumbelow.
Rumbelow tells us that over forty years John Creasey averaged about a book a month and some years put out twenty.
That's published words. Rumbelow goes on to say that usually Creasey wrote a book in ten days and spent five more days to edit.
I wonder how much he would have written with a computer.

Still
Still writing. For awhile writing just for myself -- some recollections of the army and Vietnam. Plus I am spending some time looking at Tony Hillerman's main character development. Some research on a couple of story ideas is also on the burner.

November
Already November and the lovely Fall weather continues. Most of the trees have dropped their leaves but a few brightly colored ones remain.
