Have I mentioned that the local matchmaking grandma has decided I'm on her list? Tonight was my second date with an astrophysicist.

Books: Sent off a short story to an online science fiction magazine. They rejected my last effort, but this one's new and different and probably more their style. I don't really mind submitting work - it's the wait that I hate. Trying to focus on other things. Doing a photo shoot this weekend on a picture book my sister thought up. I really like having time to do these off-the-wall personal projects.
