I’d told everybody I didn’t want to run a Kickstarter for the ATLANTIS FALLEN print edition until I at *least* had REDEEMER off to the editor, to whom it went a couple of weeks ago. Then it turned out that both my cover artist and book designer were free to turn a project around quickly, so I have launched a SUDDEN ATTACK KICKSTARTER!!! It’s a super low-key Kickstarter by my standards: it’s got one simple goal, which is financing the ATLANTIS FALLEN print edition. Why Kickstarter? Because I’ve found out…

Deirdre’s 40th, Mark Twain
Yesterday was actually Deirdre’s birthday, so we had a party for her.

My mom died.
My mom died yesterday, quite suddenly in the end, after a long illness that had been the focus of her and our lives for most of the last year.
