The book, she is done. All done.

Epilogue, just over 4000 words, written today. 92K words, 428 ms pages total. Sent to WIP readers.

I am bloody but unbowed (I took a bad fall this morning) and Cleveland Rocks, she is DONE.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Cleveland Rocks, and so does its author.

I would be doing Numfar's Dance of Done Books if I wasn't purple-black down the right side, with a pulled achilles tendon.

Internally, I'm dancing.

DONE.

Now, of course, I have to write the prologue to the first Daymond book.

Oy.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Done! Huge congrats.

Nothing yet - the Doobie Brothers have been out on the road, and are going back out in three weeks. We're hoping John McFee didn't do what he likes to do during tour breaks: head off to Japan to tour with a Japanese guitarist buddy of his.

Three pages into writing the prologue of Seven Women and the slang is already kicking my white middle-aged ass.

Oh, man. BLESS, Deena! All the way useful.
