The last few months have been crazy, as I’ve finalized revisions for both Sharp, book two of the Mindspace Investigations Series, and Payoff, the novella set in between books one and two. I’ve also done copyedits, page proofs, etc. – which has been incredibly awesome. But tiring!

Finally, as December draws to a close, I’m free enough to think about blogging, promotions, family and friends, and the joys of the holidays.

Sam and I went to exchange presents with my side of the family last weekend. I’ve taken up knitting (it helps me think), and so I gave away a ton of scarves and socks and other knitted goods. Sam picked out some hilarious gag gifts for my geeky family – including Star Trek socks and some Tribble slippers that make the cooing sound from the show. My mom got a Spock-type Live Long and Prosper oven mitt, and Sam got a set of headphones each with half an arrow sticking out of them. They look like he has an arrow through his head! (I’ll try to get a picture.) So, all in all, an incredibly fun time.

Now if I can only get my Christmas cards out…
