So there’s this weird thing that happens after you turn in a book. After a few days of post-deadline-induced shock (OMG I did it!), your brain leaves the realm of fiction and returns to the land of real stuff. That’s when you finally notice the mountainous pile of laundry, the dust bunnies under your couch, the fridge filled with nothing but furry leftovers, wilted veggies and expired condiments.

If you’re like me, this realization sets off a flurry of activity. So this weekend was filled with grocery shopping , laundry, cooking and dusting. Don’t be too impressed. This will only last until I get deep into the next book. But it’s always nice while it lasts. Plus all these mindless domestic chores gives my subconscious some room to play. It’s always fun when the synapses start firing on new ideas.

Moving on from the literal housekeeping, it’s time for some brief blog housekeeping.

Item the first: On June 4th, I’ll be signing at Legacy Books in Plano, TX from 7-9pm.

Item the second: Check out SFRevu’s review of The Mage in Black here.

Now for some fun. Scientists recently discovered the first non-primate species that engaged in oral sex. Holy BJ, Batman! Obviously don’t click on that link if you’re offended by SCIENCE.
