I'm pretty happy that the publisher Short On Time Books has agreed to publish my newest book.  The whole process of figuring out what you want to write--scoping it out, drawing diagrams and outlines, finding the soul of the protagonist--is a very rewarding experience.  You really learn how to enter into someone's mind (even if the person is one you created!) and their experiences take you places you haven't been before.  I have always heard write what you know, and have found that has led me in many ways.  I'm anxious to branch out, discover what other things might be out in the world for me to discover, and so I am starting the sequel next week.  The first book I ever wrote is still sitting in my computer, unfulfilled!  I have  quite a bit of rewriting to do to make the story come alive.  After the sequel, I think I will shake off the cobwebs (4 years isn't so terribly long) and see if I can conquer it.  I'm stepping on the path of my alternative journey!  Hope it takes the right turns!  Joyful days ahead!
