Mint tea and questions
I’m sitting at the computer while a cup of mint tea steeps. I’ve been trying to have a cup of mint tea all day and never seemed to manage it. I did manage to do twelve pages on A LICK OF FROST. Before I sit down to sip my tea I’m going to try answering a question or two from the board.
Why hasn’t Anita healed Asher’s scars? Anita has only healed fresh wounds on vampires and shapeshifters. She has never healed an old scar or anything that was less than fresh on anyone. Zombies are more like making clay… Read More

Writing, orchids, music
I took yesterday off. I’ve found that I need one day on the weekend to rest my mind so I can sit down on Monday eager to work rather than dreading it.

A quickie for the night
I’m tired tonight, guys. It’s been a very productive day. I even managed 30 minutes on the treadmill, and a bath. I’ll have Jon help me do the Edward gun research blog later. I find when I’m tired the dyslexia hits harder. I can’t seem to remember the numbers and letters for the guns in the right order. So, heck with it.
One cool thing for the day, we got to see Custard in the comic book for the first time. There’s lots of other cool stuff, but I’m not sure what I’m allowed to say and what I’m… Read More
