A WORK IN PROGRESS

During the Corona virus epidemic, most of us have spent more time at home. We have cooked, baked, cleaned, renovated, reorganized, agonized and written. I can say I have done all of these things. Writing was put on the back burner for awhile during our renovation, but that was completed and I am back to the computer.

My new book, HANGING GIRL, is in the last stages of editing and will soon be sent to a copy editor and then to those fabulously smart people who format it for paperback and digital content. Apparently, that is something one can do for themselves but I have not the time or temperament. Just like I don’t like to mess with numbers. Somehow it always frustrates me.

Look for notice in the near future for pre-orders. I’m excited about this one, but then I’m always excited when I get near the end of a book. I hope you will be too.

My son has been out of prison now for almost two years. Gee, time has passed quickly for me, but has it for him? I’d like to think so, but I know that is not true. Some of his days and nights, particularly in the beginning just after release, were long. He was not able to sleep, was afraid and anxious most of the time, had a hard time getting used to the outside and in general was up and down depending on the day.

In the first few weeks, it was like he was waiting for them to come and take him back. The only thing that made it easier was that he was across the country from his last incarceration in Florida. Now things are a lot better and I think most of the fear and anxiety are gone. He seems to be a lot more settled and…
