I have a blessed studio mate who makes sure I&#8217;m fed and not bumping into walls, and so far, it seems to be working. I&#8217;ve got the first outline for Nano done (the Advent story, which is going to be awesome, you guys), and this week, I&#8217;m working on the second one (for\u00a0<em>Resonant Frequencies<\/em>). I&#8217;ve got the edits back for\u00a0<em>Winter&#8217;s Secrets<\/em> as well, and although I won&#8217;t make a December 1 deadline for getting that published, I do promise you it will be coming. I just want it to be perfect, and it&#8217;s not yet.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m hoping this helps combat some of the SAD that I know is coming. As the days get shorter, and the air gets crisp and cold, I can feel it creeping in at the edges of my mind, sinking icy fingers into my heart and turning everything pale and cold. I don&#8217;t like feeling that way, and in the past, writing has helped me stave it off. I&#8217;m hoping to repeat that success. Wish me luck.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I can&#8217;t believe it&#8217;s nearly November. This year has flown by. You know what else I can&#8217;t believe?
