Escape

 The rewrite has become more of a do over.  What I had written was all over the place.  I hope what I have now is better.  I am just at the point of turning to the end.  I actually have nothing to rewrite from because so much has changed from the draft I started working from.  I have an idea what happens, but I know that most of it will evolve as I get there.  It is exciting and worrisome at the same time. Will it work out or will I realize there is a hole in the story?

The weather has turned really hot and there is a lot going on around me, which makes me  glad to have the distraction from it all as I help Annie Sara save the day.

I always take it as a big compliment when I hear from a reader that one of my books helped them get through an illness or they read them while they were in dialysis or chemo.  I love that I was able to offer them a way to get away from it all for awhile.  The cool thing is that it works that way for me too.  

So for awhile I can ignore the pings on my phone with messages  asking me to get this or that or do something.  I am off in the red school house in Indiana watching fireflies do their magic and my characters solve a murder and straighten out their lives..
