The Gathering: The latest new (yes, that’s redundant) member of The Gathering. He’s at the deck door staring in now. I’m calling him Tux. He’s started to become a regular. I’m not sure what it is about this house/me, but all the animals (mostly cats and kittens) show up …

Today’s writing setup. Starting work on “To Gain Knowledge - Coins of Destiny 3” #supernote #logitech #writing

If you’re feeling bored, you can get a book signed–or buy some. It’s a low-stress, fun time for bookish people. #book #reading #mdc3con

Cool. The Genre Bending session of C3 is gone after I told them we’d done it last year. Now I’m on a panel with Jodie Lynn Nye. #writing #mdc3con

Took a long walk and discovered a bunch of wild persimmon trees heavy with fruit. #botany #food
