I'm Back . . .

 It's a beautiful autumn day, much like this photo taken a year ago on Washington Island, and I'm returning to this blog after a year of Pine Lake Stories. The "blogopera" was great fun, but the "real" writing needs so much time, and there are never enough hours in a day.

For those of you who are interested (if there's actually anyone out there who IS interested, please let me know), here's the short version of my grand plan:
1) I'm hoping my novel, The World Undone, will be published by the end of the year (book launch party will be a blast, I promise)
2) C.C. Crescent's first novel, Turning Points, should be out shortly after the New Year  
3) The anthology of Lake Forest Stories is coming along. We've got some great manuscripts in the works


In the meantime, check out www.alfiedog.com  It's an online collection of stories, and they've chosen one of mine for publication.





And a message from C.C. --->

The Pine Lake Trail has come to a resting point until at least the first of the year, as those of you who followed Pine Lake Stories already know. The old episodes are still available at www.pinelakestories. blogspot.com
 C.C. Crescent is busy with another project in the works, namely getting her first novel, Turning Points, polished for publication. TTFN
