I\u2019m happy to report the first draft of <em><strong>Playing at Murder<\/strong><\/em> is done, and I\u2019m deep into the revision process. That should be finished by the end of July. It then goes to my editor and a couple of beta readers. I\u2019m aiming for a fall release. I\u2019ve also started the preparatory brain work for the first novel in a potential new series. With any luck, I\u2019ll start actual writing on it some time in August.<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019ve made less progress with the five short story goal. So far I\u2019ve started two, but haven\u2019t finished either.

Still lots to do.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It\u2019s the end of a quarter, so it\u2019s time to assess how I\u2019m doing on the goals I set for myself at the beginning of the year.
