So whose bright idea it was to bring back the snow. I came back from Boston after not having worn a coat all week. I stepped off the plane and froze my butt off. Okay, not really but only if it were that easy to lose your backside. Then that evening there was an icestorm. [...]

Had a better day today. Met Michael Palmer, writer extraordinaire of medical thrillers and he was such a nice guy. Funny too. Had him autograph a couple of books so I can give them to my father.
Today didn’t deal so much with the business end of publishing but more with the writing itself. Refreshing. I [...]

It’s been an interesting conference thus far. It’s somewhat a guilty pleasure being here. My partners think I’m at a medical conference and I am, sorta. It’s a conference for medical professionals who want to learn how to get their writing published be it fiction or non-fiction. There’s actual education credits attach to this so [...]

I think I managed to read everyone’s blogs. But it did take me close to an hour. I’m waiting for this to get easier.
Not too much planned today. I have one surgery to do and that’s all. It could potentially take hours though since it’s pretty difficult. Hopefully, things will go okay.
Yesterday, food wasnt too [...]

Okay, I have downloaded a picture but when I go to my site it isn’t there. It takes me back to my original post. This is so confusing. I guess I have to work at it some more.

I like going to these conferences but the food is sure tempting. My sinful dessert of the day was the creme brulee. Otherwise, I really only had dinner for the day.
Today I had a pasta breakfast. Leftover that is. Skipped lunch. Dinner was lobster bisque, ribeye and aforementioned dessert. It was good. I didn’t finish [...]
