In case anyone thinks I have disappeared from the face of the earth, the truth is two-fold: I have been fortunate enough to be traveling to interesting places around the world (England and Spain recently; Thailand, Singapore and Bhutan next) and when I'm back in the United States, I have been diligently working on revisions of a novel and five picture books. The books are all out to editors and I am working on four other projects. Although I enjoy the initial creative process more than the hard work of revision, I feel good about the way I have dismantled earlier works to reassemble them as new, improved and hopefully, marketable books.
I appreciate my writing colleagues who enjoy writing blog posts and I may get back into a routine later, but for now, this blog will probably remain mostly silent while I enjoy the next big trip. When I travel, I find airports, plane and train rides, hotel rooms to be marvelous retreat spaces in which I continue to work on my craft.
Thanks for understanding.
