Weird Writing Weekend

Many things have been happening in my life that drive it all crazily out of control.  The city is pushing me to do a home repair that is beyond my ability to pay for.  They will fine me more money I don’t have if I don’t do it.  I finally got my son into a school that has been keeping us out with paperwork nightmares that are entirely their fault, not mine.  And what does it all boil down to?  I have gotten some very good writing done.

In The Bicycle-Wheel Genius a very unusual character turns out to be the save-the-day sort of hero.

A new set of plot developments occurred in The Magical Miss Morgan.  A new character appeared out of nowhere and became essential to the story, even though it was already plotted out completely differently.

And I received my copy of my book contract in the mail for Snow Babies.  

So, even when the grimness is at its grimmiest sort of grim… There are things that make me laugh.
