Traveling is over, at least the 'go get groped by TSA then stuff yourself in an aluminum tube and go' variety.

Dorable's being a bit more cooperative.

Somebody made a comment about Nikki and her triangle, featured regularly in the Community's music fests.

I found a clip on YouTube that gives you some idea of what goes on in MY head when I think about them playing Cajun music.

After traipsing through Minnesota, North and South Dakota, Iowa, Missouri, Illinois, and the airports in Arizona and Colorado, I needed to revisit my Cajun roots. This is what happens.

Trying to get some writing done, but Dorable's not being too cooperative. Next week sees me leaving home early Monday morning, then flying to the upper midwest, then back down a state, flying home on Friday.

I tend to write sporadically when I'm in a hotel room, but I'll try to get something done. I'm pushing Dorable for a chapter of Becky before I leave. And we still ahven't finished with Mister Charlie's visit to Munchkin Central.

The ideas are there. I just need Dorable to flesh 'em out for me.

And if you haven't yet nominated for the Clitorides, if I'm worth the effort, please take the time.

Thanks

North Dakota right now. Previously, Minnesota. Had a reminder of lessons learned as a young soldier on the Korean DMZ in winter as I navigated from the terminal to a rental car, then drove fifty-odd miles through blowing snow to visit one of my company's facilities.

It's 0 degrees F outside right now, headed for -10 in the morning.

I just posted a chapter of Becky. It's the last of my post-Christmas romp with Dorable. I'm doing a lot of traveling in the next few weeks, so posting may be sporadic. Dorable doesn't deal well with me traveling.

In the meantime, nominations are open for the Clitorides awards. If you think my stories meet the challenge, nominate your favorites.

Three active stories, all in the Top Twenty downloads. Dorable was frisky during the week of vacation I took between Christmas and New Year's Day, so I have a little backlog of chapters to post.

Of course, with the new year, it's back to work, and things may slow down a bit as Real Life intrudes once more. My business involves keeping half the country warm and lit up, and with the record cold, things are running hard. Means I'll be running hard as well.

You folks stay safe, enjoy the stories, and feel free to comment. I read every one of them.

Finished three active stories in the last week. That's good. You fans, if you'd be so kind as to nominate ad vote for them in the up coming 'Story of the Year' dealio, I'd appreciate it. Good placement int eh voting means I get up to triple my normal pay for these things.

That said, a few of you noted the closure of those stories and sounded soooo sad. I know you don't want to wait until 2018, so I'm kicking things off today with the first of my stories for 2018. It's brand new, introducing Becky and Brad in a tangled mess.

Next in the hopper is the continuation of Bill and Haley and Deena, and then we'll pop back into the Community and see what's going on there.

And Happy New Year!
