I'm doing as well as can be expected since Dad passed away. I'm definitely getting my zest for writing back, which is a good thing; writing's always been excellent therapy. I also landed a job at Deseret Industries and I'm starting to make money of my own. May not be a thumping fortune, but it gets my foot in the door. Hopefully one day I will be able to live off my writing, but until that happens (if that ever happens at all), I still want to be involved with books, and this year, I'm participating in NaNoWriMo (National Novel Writing Month) for the second time. This will be first-rate practice for my fantasy series with Terence that I'd been slaving on since 2005, and I'm only half-joking about that!
