I’m glad to see your blog has been revived.
Thank you! I’m going to try to keep it going, time permitting
I enjoyed this latest installment very much. I discovered your books by following the career of Kate Reading, who has so expertly narrated your audiobooks. I am grateful to both of you! I hope you are busy writing – I can’t wait to see what Edie and Derek get up to next.
Thanks Susan. Edie and Derek have a habit of outpacing me. They’ve been getting up to all sorts and leaving me with the job of writing it all down. Just wish they’d kick back and watch TV for a few months, give me a chance to catch up.
