In Shadows

Here I sit at the Urban Grind coffee house in the Pearl District.  I was impressed with the funky little place the last time I was here.  Unfortunately, thats’ when I got so deathly ill and I haven’t been back since.
But today I have a purpose.
Last night while online, I became bored, really bored.  I […]

…so good.
Spent yesterday reading through the first seventeen and a half chapters of Born of Silence. Also went in to my audiologist to have my hearing checked and the aids looked over. The aids are doing fine and dandy, but the hearing is worse. I’ve got a name and number for an […]

At least THIS time . . . Who knows when Castle Walls will darken my digital door again?

(And I just discovered my caps shift doesn’t work with my iJournal on this iBook. Bummer. I’ll update at the website.)
LOTS been happening here. Mostly work. But this next month is supposed to be slower than molasses so I’ll have some extra days off. Not good for the paycheck, but […]

Been pretty busy at work and at home to write or post. I’ll admit, some of it is an annoying addiction to Second Life, but the work front has been exhausting. The holiday season are both our busiest and laziest times of the year.
Orycon totally rocked, of course. I had a blast […]

And I write. 1952 words, chapter twenty-six of Orphan Maker is complete.
Also ran errands today. Picked up my month’s prescription, did some banking, and went to the audiologist to pick up my new ear molds. There’s a definite improvement in hearing with them. The rubber and plastic get old and less […]

The move went extremely well. In three days we were completely unpacked and put away. I still have some doodads to hang on the balcony, but other than that, we’ve settled in.
Been without DSL for almost a week, then had to spend an hour on the phone with support to get it back […]

An announcement has been put out on the ‘verse about a former employee of Fortitude selling off the abandoned stock of titles. The books have been stored in her basement almost from the beginning of the company, and it will cost three or four hundred dollars to have the local waste management company haul […]

P.D. Publishing is proud to announce that we will be publishing the following books:
Castle Walls, 2nd edition by D. Jordan Redhawk, available in the Summer of 2006. Also from Redhawk, Tiopa Ki Lakota, 3rd edition and Warlord Metal, 2nd edition, both available Fall 2005.

Miles, that is. I’ve written Lainey out of Shaktoolik, through a six hour break at Koyuk, and on her way to Elim. Hopefully the end of this chapter will see her out of Elim and on toward Golovin.
The next stretch after that will be short and sweet with only a mandatory 8 hour […]

Hopefully until the end of the novel. I’ve busted through 2672 words today, finishing chapter 44 and beginning 45. Lainey’s getting punch drunk from the lack of sleep, some hallucinations. This leg is also taking a toll on her dogs. She’ll lose two more before she leaves the checkpoint at Unalakleet.
Which […]

Just heard from a friend that Castle Walls in number one at Libertas, the online lesbian book distributor in the U.K.! Way cool! I can’t imagine what’s going to happen when Tiopa Ki Lakota comes out.
Been working and writing. I’m now on the fourth chapter of the Iditarod story. I […]

Has been a pretty productive day. Yesterday, too.
Yesterday, I saw S and N and gave S an autographed copy of Castle Walls. Then saw J and did the same. Then wandered over to Coffee People to have a Velvet Hammer and pumpkin bread while I reaquainted myself with my Tiopa Ki Lakota […]

got ‘em! I got ‘em! I got my copies of Castle Walls!! W00T!
I’ve also got all the copies signed that need signing. Next week, six of them will hit the US Snail, and two go to people here in Portland.
On the Tiopa Ki Lakota front, I just finished a new […]

So . . . I’m really happy for Aries. Apparently, people in the UK who ordered Castle Walls have already received it! YAY! And it was only ordered last week! Major kudos!
But . . .
Where are MY copies? I’m supposed to get ten freebies! I’m hearing how wonderful […]
