Ok, I'll bite the bait and try and keep the thread on topic... whatever that topic may be. Life has been pretty good for me recently. I'm on a month long vacation since I graduated from law school, here in northern California, in May and took the California bar exam at the end of July. Jamaica was nice, the beaches were nice, the rain was nice, but wasn't used to the humidity. We went to this resort, the grand lido negril
http://www.grandlidonegril.com/ and it was our second time going there as we had been there 4 years ago for our honeymoon. However, it wasn't as nice as it had been previously, and my wife didn't feel as safe on the resort as she did last time, what with some of the staff making inappropriate passes at her while I was in the ocean and she was on the beach... not what you expect from a supposedly nice resort. But oh well, going up to British Columbia to go hiking for a week, and then I start back at work in September.
Hmmm, what I've read recently. Well finally had the time to pick up and finish Jim butcher's latest Dresden Files book, which I always enjoy. Picture a humorous detective novel, except the detective is a wizard in Chicago with a sense of humor, and there are mythical fairytale creatures eating the mundane humans of the world. Pretty good book, finished it in a day on the beach. Some 300 + pages if I remember right, and good like the rest of his series.
Other than that, been reading on
http://www.storiesonline.net and communicating back and forth with the authors of Sword Saint and De'ja vu Ascendancy a bit.... mostly Shaddoth of Sword Saint, but I keep trying to get more posts from DJVA... just like I try to do with Fel.
On top of all that, I'm currently writing on three book series, but haven't posted anything yet. Looking for an editor still, but don't know if I'll ever share. As I write I learn how time consuming it is, as well as that sometimes your labor of love is personal, and it can be daunting to share. With that said, short plug to fel for his wonderful writing that he shares, and now it is somebody else's turn to write about life.

Fel, Is it done yet? Probably not, but I don't have anything better to do! Is it done yet? Probably not, but I don't have anything better to do! Ahhh, its done... dang, now what am I going to read???
New books! Yay! let the nagging begin! Is it done yet? Probably not, but I don't have anything better to do! Is it done yet? Probably not, but I don't have anything better to do!...
True, I really have nothing better to do in my free time, I mean, what could be better than reading Fel's stories or being messed with by Spec? Thanks for the fun spec!
