I've
received a few comments from readers of my blogs asking me if I have stopped
writing them. No, I haven't. But for the foreseeable future they will appear
infrequently.
Working
with my publisher, I am putting all of my novels into print. This is a time
intensive project that requires the e-books be reformatted, a galley copy
printed, then I have to carefully proofread this copy to be sure that it is
free of mistakes. Along with this, I need to design front and back covers that
are printable. This entire procedure is much more complex that preparing an
ebook for publication.
Of
course I still have my community responsibilities; I am a member of the boards
of two county agencies and my wife and I deliver Meals on Wheels once a week.
Also there is grass to mow, routine maintenance and emergency repairs to house
and out buildings, shopping/errands, and the occasional doctor visits. Now and
again I have to sleep and eat—I have no time to relax with a beer. Somethings
must be sacrificed for the sake of art. At least I am not bored, only tired.
So
faithful readers please bear with me. I'll still stick a blog in here and
there. Please keep your comments and suggestions coming. By the way, the only
drawback I can see with the Google Blogspot is the process that a reader has to
follow to reply on the blog site itself. Please email me or comment on
Facebook. I read my email every day and respond immediately when possible; I do
not regularly look at Facebook. So if your comment is important, email is the
best way to let me know.
