A quick in and out

This is just a wave. I was in China for ten days. Am now back from China and about to take my daughter Maddy away for Spring Break. It's been announced that I'm going to write a film adaptation of The Journey To The West, and I am, and yes, I am still writing my non-fiction book about the Journey, only now it will have my film adventure in there too.

I had a marvelous time in China, despite having no access to Blogger or Twitter.  And am now being driven through the snow to take Maddy and her friend on holiday,  and to see my wife for the first time in six weeks. I'll be back twittering and blogging in a week.

I'm attaching a few snapshots from China. The blue statue was taken, appropriately enough, in Dali.

Jerry Jarvis Where were you visiting in China? Have you been to Yellow Mountain? It's beautiful up there.

D.M. Journey to the West really seems to have its tentacles out there; a number of people have been drawn into it recently. Strange. I'll be looking forward to your output on it, Gaiman, and wish you and the girls a great break!
