Seeing white...

…and the weather people were finally right. Woke to a ton of snow. Spent the morning shoveling instead of writing. But no complaints. The neighborhood looked particularly beautiful today.

Leaving for Pittsburgh tomorrow. Well, leaving for Denver, anyway. More snow’s predicted for tomorrow, so we’re getting a jump on the drive. Spending the night in a hotel. Flying out Wednesday morning.

Can’t wait to see the boys. Seems like they’ve been gone a year already. Got a home-made Halloween Card from Jack today, and couldn’t believe how far he’s come with his spelling and penmanship. Haven’t seen much of Mattie since they moved. Hope he remembers us.

New short is coming along well. Still have revisions before I can call it a reader draft, but I like the direction it’s heading.

Rejection from the BFR. Sixteen months after submission. 2019 will, in most respects, be a year I’ll happily bid farewell.

Gonna sit back and chill tonight. Hope tomorrow’s snow doesn’t arrive until I’m sitting in my room in Denver.
