Well, it’s 22:19 on the 28th. I’m just about to hit 30,000 words for the month. Not bad. But…not good enough for NaNoWriMo. Of course, I’ve got some more writing in me tonight, so I’ll probably get to 31,000 or …

Yeah, I’m feeling a little bit saucy. Hence the play on Simon and Garfunkel in the title of this post. It’s been a while since I last posted anything. And a lot’s happened in the interim. So why haven’t I …
