Blurred Line

Seriously. If this were a Shakespearean play, there'd be a bunch of stage directions and bit part players called "Heralds" running around, announcing stuff. Alas, it's just a blog, so when I tell you my return is triumphant, you're just going to have to accept it. Anyhow, I'm returning from my self-imposed exile (caused largely by Thomas Hardy, Rogers Video Direct, and various mixed drinks - but more on those another day) with some exciting news.

Goodbye, Darwin has officially completed production. For the uninitiated, that means I actually held a finished copy of the book in my hand yesterday. It was snazzy. As for a release date, we're looking at late November, so keep an eye out. I'll keep you posted. Promise. No, really, I'm not going to up and leave again.

Any other writing news from me is, well, pretty much non-existent. Of course, every writer's favourite month of the year is nearly upon us once again. That's right, National Novel Writing Month is kicking off in a couple of weeks. I won't be participating this year, per se, though I do plan to write like crazy over the month. I would join, but I'll be breaking all sorts of sacred NaNoWriMo rules, most notably that I'm going to make an attempt to finish a WIP. The bulk of Mass Romantic was actually written way back in NaNoWriMo 2005, so I'm hoping that there'll be enough of that good November karma floating around again to help me finally finish off the second half of the story. We'll see. Keep your fingers crossed.
