Maine, here I come

Tomorrow I'll be flying to Maine to visit friends for a week. It's a working vacation as Liz (Hand) will be working some of the time and so will I. I'm bringing along YBFH #22 reading material mostly--it'll be interesting to see how much I get done.

I'll be online but I have no idea how much. Hopefully, I'll be too distracted having some FUN to be online more than a couple of times a day.

I'll be sending out the copies of A Whisper of Blood that I owe four of you the week I return.

Have a safe trip and enjoy! Good luck with the readings.

Thanks. And you've just reminded me that I started to read your interview with Lucius (who I saw this evening)and will have to remember to read it either while in Maine or when I get home!

Thanks. I'm here in Maine catching up to my 121+ emails.

I'm still catching up from the long weekend. Kinda glad AH has been quite.

Blow a kiss to ME for me. As a kid I had a friend who had a "cottage" up there & I really loved it & still miss it. Beautiful state & the only place that can give MN mosquitoes a run for their money.

Maine + December = Frozen Extremities. Especially for those recently in Floridiastan.

Nah--it's actually pretty warm for Maine right now...and although I didn't bring my ug-like boots, I did bring sweaters and a big heavy scarf, if it does get really cold :-)

May you have a fun time! Cuz being online is like...the...worst...thing...ever!

Sounds like you'll be in great company.

Try to lift Liz' spirits.

She's doing fine. She was worried about a story she was working on and I think I helped her with it.

Yah!

Guess that's what an editor does :)

Hopefully awaiting more of Liz's fiction.
