Confession: Despite my best intentions to write fiendishly this week, my progress has been below target. But there *is* progress and I strongly believe that absorbing the sun, African beauty and fabulous company will not only aid in catching up, but making the writing better.

I wrote a blog post about how I choose artists for each book. A quote from the post: "There are a few requirements for the artist: He needs to fit into the era/style that is related to the book. If his life is important to the story, I also look for those specific elements..."

My view. I'm soaking in the beauty, resting, walking, resting some more and writing. I'm sitting on a very large balcony and a few minutes ago took photos of a warthog mommy and her three babies as well as a blou wildebeest (brindled gnu) roaming around a few metres from me. Will post loads of photos later.

A quick update: I'm safe and sound in South Africa and I'm loving the sun and heat. We're about to leave for a weekend in the bush (can't wait!). But... I've been busy as you can see in the chart. This weekend, the African bush will feed the Muses.

Happy weekend everyone!!

I put an extremely important photo (and information) up on my blog. It's proof that I *love* my job. And that I'm not immune to the... um... encouragement from y'all to make haste.
