No new writing to report. The last few days have consisted mostly of the day-job gobbling up my hours; though I did make it out to Ballard to see Kat and her noble canine companion on Wednesday, which was cool. Tomorrow I'm heading back over there again – this time with Ellen and Suezie – and together, we shall help the same aforementioned Kat replace a refrigerator on her (awesomely vintage) yacht-home.

Saturdays are partydays! Or … hoisting heavy appliances up into a boat day, as the case may be. We'll have fun with it, regardless.

Next week, I'll be gone from Monday morning 'till Thursday evening for day-job facetime down in San Francisco, so blogging will likely continue to be pretty light for a bit. I'll have my laptop with me, and I'll try to get some word-grinding accomplished … but heaven knows if I'll feel like posting after spending all day sitting in a conference room picking the M&Ms out of trail mix and arguing with a couple of (perfectly lovely) dudes over a white board.

One of these days, I'll get to tell you what I'm working on. And one of these days, I'll get to unleash my squee upon you all … on the day-job front, and on another front or two as well. Big things are in the queue! But paperwork moves as slow as molasses, and official announcements must wait for now.

Before I log off, I want to point you all at this blog entry by George R. R. Martin, re: the next Wild Cards book, Fort Freak. As per the mighty GRRM, now you can check out a whole self-contained segment FREE over at Tor.com – just click the link and let your eyeballs do the scrolling.

Happy reading, everybody! And have a good weekend.
