Yesterday, I wrote a new short story from beginning to end, called "The Briar Patch Evangelist, or; The Tale of Beater Rabbit." It's one of the strangest and most transparent things I've written. I love it! It's also the first short story I've finished since 2008. I really feel like I've returned with this tale.

The files from the damaged flash drive should arrive today!

The Metrognomes: 2011 Calendar went on sale yesterday. I have yet to order mine, but hope to get to it today. I'll let you know what I think! From the images I've seen at the store, it looks like the graphics are smaller than I anticipated. Lots of white space. I'll have to see it up close to decide whether or not I think it works. :) Can't wait!

We're still waiting on the files from that damaged flash drive to come in, so today's expected release of Metrognomes: The Shaman's Apprentice in hardback has been pushed back to November 2 to give us some time to put the elements together once the files come in. At this point, the next expected release will be the 2011 Metrognomes calendar, which is set and ready to go on October 12!
