Happy New Year all. I find myself 6 months behind my self imposed deadline on the second keeper book. I offer no excuses but do apologise for breaking my promises to deliver. I'm almost through with book 2 and hope to deliver it soon. (I've found to my chagrin that Second Book Syndrome is alive and well in my psyche.) I've got a solid outline, the cover and the title "The Keeper and the Dragons"-- most of the story is set on the other side of the Fremont Thinning in Oldtown.
