Wow. Thanks for the interest, y'all. And for the poem, Shallowford. No one's ever written me a poem before. *sniff* I'm really touched.
Last year was mostly a lost year as far as anything outside of work and recovery from two major surgeries was concerned. I never thought "coming back" from an injury was that big a deal, but I now have a lot more respect for athletes who return to competition after knee and shoulder injuries. It takes a lot more time to regain flexibility and strength in those joints than I thought it would, and since I'm no longer a spry young chicken, it's taken me a bit longer than that.
But I can tell you that I am working on the middle part of "The End Of The Road" and I anticipate getting it to beta stage by late spring or early summer, if not before. I have the beginning and the ending written - now all I have to do is tie them together. I know what I need to do, but getting the words right has been a struggle. But I plan to finish it this year. Honest.
I'm running out of joints to repair, anyway.
Thanks for the continued interest in this other-world Lois and Clark. We'll have to see what the future brings for these two.
