Utterly gorgeous weather and I'm stuck inside revising. The strangest part is that I can hardly tear myself away. I'm working, and suddenly three or four hours are just gone. I hope I can get Chasing Ghosts in print in time for Christmas.

I'm looking forward to seeing my daughter and her family when I travel to Boulder at the end of the month for the Western Literature Association conference.

I'm so stressed over the election that I'm listening to Public Radio instead of television--purely for enjoyment.
