Tuesday, 28th of November -- rolling, rolling, rolling -- nearly there, big beautiful December, a month of excitement, hope, fun, and huge laughs and, hopefully, NO DRAMA. Everyone done with shopping? Are you shopping online or at stores, or both? On your laptop or your phone for the online stuff?
Amazing how fast things change, isn't it? I can remember very clearly when I set up my very first email account -- I remember the confusion, the complexity of it (well, being a computer idiot didn't help) and finally, the success, only not all that many people had emails back in the dark ages. No online shopping to speak of, all catalogs -- no matter, it's all fun. What's coming next?
Here's what I want: Artificial Intelligence advances, like you could talk to your computer-- and it would be an intelligent partner, speak back -- an AI partner.
Or, imagine, you wear a tiny little headset and earpiece turned on to your iphone, so when you're in a foreign county, you speak in English, the ear-bud simultaneously sends to what you said to your iPhone and the iPhone translates and says it on speaker in the correct language. It's happening now, but it needs to be really really efficient. And, naturally, vice versa. Imagine, immediately fluent in Latvian?
Don't forget, SHOULDER BLADES BACK and up and down stairs, walk, walk, walk, with critters is usually the most fun -

I'm Baaaack!
Halloween's coming up fast, the day the zombies burst out of the ground and terrify the crap out of us, not to mention eat our candy and eat our brains.

Halloween's coming up fast, the day the zombies burst out of the ground and terrify the crap out of us, not to mention eat our candy and eat our brains.
Update on BOMBSHELL, the 17th FBI Thriller: I'm nearly finished with the edit. The cover is very cool, explodes with eye-popping color. BOMBSHELL is set in Maestro, Va., (the setting of the 10th FBI thriller, POINT BLANK) and in Washington.
JEWEL OF THE LION (first thriller in A Brit in the FBI series partnered with J.T. Ellison). JEWEL moves fast and you don't know what's going to happen on the next page, and you're biting your toenails or a zombie's toenails. J.T. is an excellent plotter and that means when we brainstorm no plot gets left behind.
Alas, no kids want candy enough to crawl up our oxygen-deprived steep driveway, and the sad thing is, I still have a big bowl of candy, every year, but no one comes, not even the zombies with brain bags.
Take care, Catherine
