Burke and Hare, DDS – Where did my dentists dig up such amazingly lifelike dentures? Perhaps they too read Edgar Poe?

Watching Watching the Nightingales – It has been a long time between episodes, but number 15 was finally sent out last week. I can’t fault Mr. Clegg for putting the serial novel on hiatus due to the need to concentrate on other work. I’ve been having similar problems myself. It is, however, not all that easy to pick up where you left off more than two months ago. It took a few paragraphs to get back into the swing of things. In this episode young Alex learns more about the mysterious basement and perhaps what happened to him when he was six. Good stuff, and I’m glad that the story is going again. On a personal note it is buoying to see that successful professional writers have the same time management problems that I do and make the same minor errors in their early drafts that I make. These little things will be corrected later on, but it does my heart good to see them now.

Hiatus – Obviously I’ve been away for a little while. My work life and a few other things began to consume more of my time, energy, and attention than usual, and something had to give. Things are still pretty intense here, but my time is a little better organized. I won’t be fully up to speed right away, but I will be posting again. By the way, I posted a similar announcement a couple of weeks ago, but it vanished. I’m still waiting for Google to make Blogger a better system.
