Happy November to everyone!  I hope you all have had a good past couple of months.  I have been exceptionally busy (and tired and in pain), so I wasn't able to get out a newsletter for September or October.  Honestly, there wasn't much to put out.  It was the same old stuff, which was getting a bit depressing.  I was not happy reporting the lack of progress every month.

However, I have some good news!  I hit over my 100,000 words mark for Gray Tower Book 6!  I feel like that was a fairly large milestone.  AND I'm at the climax of the story (no, not that kind of climax 😉).  The ending is near, but I do have a lot to do.  

I am bummed that it looks like I'll have no books published in 2024.  It's hitting me pretty hard, but I'm not going to let that stop me.  We're getting there.  Thank you all for your support.  You've been the best!
