Hi, Deanna:

   Good luck with your second novel. That sounds fascinating.

   I'm not sure about my publishing plans. I want to finish the book first... which I'm getting close to doing. I'm probably going to have to self-publish. I've set up my blog somewhat in anticipation of that, although I find writing about the process really helps me, too.

Hi, Deanna:

    Glad things are going well in British Columbia.

    I live in Berkeley, California. I'm writing a young adult book that involves an "Other Universe" world and teens who are destined to do great things and the other teens who need to protect them from evil forces. I'm almost done with a third draft. How is your writing going?
