For the last week, I’ve been holed up here in northern Minnesota, in a cabin off Lake Superior, trying to finish my second novel.  Well, as of a few minutes ago, I’ve finished.  I feel like playing the Hallelujah chorus.  I feel like I should be smoking or drinking or something.

Now come the revisions and polishing.  Not too much longer now.

I’m so grateful.

But more than that, I miss the two I’ve left behind.  For purely selfish reasons, I’m going to play another tune today, offered up to my most favorite people in all the world.

My sweet Daniel and Liliana, we are so much better together.  I’ll be home soon.
