Hey, and although I haven't been writing much these past few weeks, I have had time to edit. "Bambino" and "Amber" are now in their second drafts, and my wife (whose critical opinion means more to me than a hundred a writers' workshops) has already given the former story two thumbs up. I can't wait for her to read "Amber"...

Tonight however I'll have time to resume the novel at last. Onward to Chapter Seven!
