Waking In The Afternoon

In case you hadn’t guessed by my absence, I’ve been at work on an eleven days before having a couple of days to relax (during which I was encouraged to sleep & then taken for dinner by my lovely Howard Bear). Slept in until early afternoon on my second day off.

Now, with the completion of Preying On Time (which is in its second editing stage) & the release of Desecrated Bonds, I feel I should begin again. But I guess we’ll have to see how I go with that considering certain time constraints.

I am, however, hopeful.
