No worries, Cheryl (you have a beautiful name, by the way).
Life is what must come first, because it is after all the fuel for all our stories. And when authors can't write, it means things are taking place that need their undivided attention.
Same for me too, work and activism are in first priority at this time here, so I know Mac understands and doesn't mind waiting a little more, even with uh... yeah... three bullet holes in his arm... a hike ahead of him... and um... trouble at Phoenix Foundation... and..
...yeah I'll stop now, and try to slip him a painkiller.
Bottom line, hang in there.
Intelligence is the one variable everyone believes to be constant.
