Time Away...

I think this is the longest I've gone without spending time with my friends in Derry since I started writing about them in April 2010.


I honestly thought some of my vacation time would be spent "polishing" the next installment of their story to prepare it for publishing, but that never happened, and I think it was for the best.  


Sometimes, your brain just needs to be free of anything that creates stress, even if it's a stress you have enjoyed, such as writing about fictional folks that you love.


It was a good week of sitting on the beach, playing in the surf, and not doing much of anything else.
