Just checking in. I've been busy entertaining a house guest from Rhode Island (she's hiding from all the damned Connecticut tourists) and rethinking the final quarter or so of Low Red Moon. It looks like I'll be "back to work" on Monday. Any other news? I almost had to bail on the Lovecraftian Sherlock Holmes anthology, but the editor kindly gave me a three-week extension on the deadline, which means if I work my ass off night and day until mid-July I should be able to finish the story and keep LRM on track.
By the way, if you've not yet read Neil Gaiman's Coraline, do so at once. It's one of those extraordinary and all-too-rare children's books, the sort that speaks to children, not down to them, and speaks to adults as well, not up to them. Go and read it. Now.
