Sometime this morning, after a groundhog tells us all what to expect for the rest of the winter, an armadillo will leave its burrow down here and the message will be: “It’s Texas — who the hell knows what to expect!”
It’s been in the mid 70s, lately. While winter in Texas is much different than winters growing up north of Chicago — even by Texas standards — it’s been mild.
And it’s been busy.
What’s Been Up?
Between the passing of my father in law on Christmas morning and a very busy couple months at the day job, things seem to be getting back to normal. I actually got the chance to open A Magic Life and get some work done, recently.
I’m working on a new design for my personal website, and planning things for The Juggling Writer. (There have been a few requests for more videos, so I’ve been considering what I’d like to do for that.)
And I’ve been trying to get some more interviews lined up.
Speaking of Interviews…
I’m pleased to announce that on February 7, I’ll be running an interview with author, Alex George.
Alex’s book, A Good American
We also talk about how music plays into A Good American, how Alex has been dealing with all the wonderful praise the book has received before its release, and the good and bad sides of being a writer.
In conjunction with the interview — I’ll also be doing a giveaway for a copy of A Good American, so be ready for that!
The Rest of February
And that’s it!
I’m sure more will come along as the month goes by, but that’s what I have planned for February.
If there’s anything you’d like me to write about, leave a comment or get in touch and let me know.
Here’s to a great month!
Glad to read you are finding time for A Magic Life. Also looking forward to reading the Alex George interview.
My condolences to you and Cynthia on the passing of a parent. I wish you both a productive end of winter and a happy spring.
I’m fine when I have to throw myself into work for a time because as a tech writer, I know there will come a time where I’m not as busy and will have time to focus on other writing. The past couple months, though, have been a bit crazy.
Not that our part of Texas really sees winter, but this year was even more mild. In ways, I’ll take it — at least when Cynthia and I went to Missouri for the funeral, there was no snow or ice to contend with on the drive. We’re back to moving forward, so that’s been nice 🙂
I really liked the way the Alex George interview turned out — he’s such a gracious guy. A Good American is getting some major attention, and it’s so cool that he’s still taking time to chat with smaller bloggers. I’ve liked the excerpts I’ve read, so I look forward to getting the book on Tuesday, and I look forward to seeing how the giveaway goes. I’ve only done a giveaway for the Hell Comes with Wood Paneled Doors podcast, so it will be fun to see how this one works out.
As always, thanks for the reply!
