July 2011 Update

What a scraggly long beard I've grown since my last entry. Time to shave it off.

Working, not working and working some more on my new draft of a book I'm putting together. First draft was a winner over at NaNoWriMo. The book is Writing With Wine. It's about a writer by the name of Henry Jackson who is searching for some peace in his life so that he might be able to hit the profound button on occasion during his writing sessions but there are two main obstacles by the name of Lizzie and Alice who are not exactly looking for the same kind of peace Henry is looking for.

I was going to take a road trip down to New Orleans but the heat wave this summer has forced my compass to point North so the road trip will be to Vermont and other New England destinations instead where ninety degrees is much more of a stranger. I wanted to get over to Austin, TX too but that trip will wait until the snow begins to blow around NYC.

I'm not going to write a book here and now but I wanted to touch base in these here parts once again. Anyway I'll definitely make the attempt to be back here with a few tidbits before the whiskers get the chance to bloom all over again.
