Addendum: In which I have reached THE END.

At about 6 p.m. (Caitlín Standard Time), I finally finished the first draft of "Bainbridge." It is done. Now, I get a couple of days off, the first real days-off I've had in weeks. Spooky's taking me to the Georgia Aquarium tomorrow (you'll recall that I didn't get to go on Xmas). There will be fish. And squids. And stuff. My thanks to everyone who has so far offered their advice regarding a possible move to Salem, MA, especially kambriel, who has very kindly promised to introduce us to the city firsthand. Now I'm gonna go lie on my face. Literally. Tonight, I may drown in my own drool.

Oh, and that weirdness with Amazon.com supposedly selling Murder of Angels for only $4.99 was a screw-up on Amazon's part, the best one they've pulled on me since they claimed that I wrote Neil's book Stardust. I e-mailed my editor today, who, equally baffled, e-mailed the Amazon rep, who said it was all a big mistake. So. Apologies. No $4.99 copies of MoA. It still has all that "bargain price" nonsense up, but trust me, it lies. I have been assured that this will not negatively impact sales. What sales? Ha, ha, ha, ha...oh, whatever.

Oh, and here's the link to letter X of Frog Toes and Tentacles and its sumptuous "cozy." Have a look. Crushed velvet and red silk. Oooooooooooo.

Kickass! Go, you!

How odd. Murder of Angels was one of the few books of yours I didn't have, so when I saw the price, I snapped it right up. I went to work today to find the package - I'd been charged $4.99 for the book (I verified this with my credit card), and on the back was a big white sticker with a new barcode labeled "Amazon Bargain Book $4.99". Well, maybe I slipped in under the wire, before they found the mistake. I guess praying to Dagon all these years finally paid off. About time....

Salem is nice. We spent Halloween there, with lovely warmish weather. Great ambience and friendly people.

I'd certainly love to go back and visit again.

I figured I would post this here, as the other post is getting a little large with all the comments. I snapped this with my camera phone this morning. http://idioglossia.typepad.com/photos/moblog/pix006_1.html This is what I woke up to this morning. Once you get used to the cold, the snow makes it all worth while. I wish I had a few shots from up the road a bit. The scenery of all the trees covered perfectly in a blanket of snow was just beautiful.

Now, I get a couple of days off, the first real days-off I've had in weeks.

Enjoy!
