My latest creative endeavor, to become a published writer, and the trials and tribulations.

Already?

Okay, so I've been a lazy blogger. It's unfathomable that Thanksgiving is next week. And do retailers really not hear EVERYONE complain about holiday music and items being in their stores so early. I don't know anybody who likes this before Thanksgiving, do you? It's so about the money to them - the longer the stuff is in their stores, the more we spend, I guess. (Well, not me. I have no money. ;-)

25 of my 31 students are having their recitals on Sunday, so I've been busy with that. I'm proud of these kids. Most are memorized and a few have really grown leaps and bounds since the last recital 6 months ago.

Honestly, I haven't written in a couple of weeks, but I sort of screwed it up. I had an idea about whose perspective the book should be written from, and I sorted it out for the first half, but it isn't working on the second half, so I have to rearrange the second half. I just haven't gotten to it yet.

Also, I read "The Lost Symbol" - Dan Brown's new book. Not as good as DaVinci Code, and not even close to as good as "Angels and Demons", but still good nonetheless. I love his writing. His plots are so complicated and take so much explanation, but it doesn't bog you down, nor does he talk down to you. It was a very fast read and I couldn't put it down.

Here's hoping you all have a happy, prosperous and warm holiday season!
