Foreign Body Reaction - coming to a blog near you!

It is time once again, chickies, for me to finish preparations for my departure south to Quartzsite. It seems small and petty to rail against the weather while so many of you remain caught in your immobile domiciles, but I do each November. Having enjoyed the dry deserts of southern Arizona, it is difficult to see why humans stand around in the cold rain chanting for the return of summer. No wait - they have houses - there's a concept - well at least those that aren't facing adjustable rate mortgage increases that will put them out in the rain with me, have houses.
I digress. I haven't been writing here much because those of you have become convinced of the collapse are doing things to prepare and those of you that aren't preparing have stopped reading my blather anyway. So I've been working on something different.

As many of you readers know, I worked two season's ago through most of the winter on a novel. I had written it through the climatic scene, but I didn't like it. I was not stimulated to press on. But in the last eighteen months I have very much missed the actual writing and lives of the characters developing under my fingers. Besides I was boring you with the direction of the blog so I am heading off in a completely different direction.

Starting next Monday I will be creating a new novel on the blog. I have it plotted from one end to the other, yet the characters will have their say, as will daily events in the news. Certainly, current gold prices, crude oil prices, and a FIFTY BILLION dollar downgrade of AAA bonds to JUNK bonds is something you can't get away with in fiction - only in real life.

I will say there will be societal stress, love, romance, epic collisions of good with less good, confused with the unclear, rich with the poor and, of course, there will be explicit sex (oh no!), financial ruin and gain, villains, heroes, heroines and women who best remain yet unclothed.
Stop back on Monday for the first installment of "Foreign Body Reaction."
