Just checking in ...and shouting out

Yes, it's been a long time. Things got busy, then they got crazy-busy, then they got just plain insane ... and now they've settled down again.

I'm no longer working with Sage Hill, but I'm happy to give a shout out to a great organization. If you're a writer, it's a great place to go:
