So we're closing in on the end of Peripheral People and I'm experiencing a wee bit of stress. Without a doubt, this is the most intricately-plotted novel I've ever been a part of (Reesa doesn't get to claim that. Her Memory Keeper is mind-blowing!) so I feel like I have to keep re-reading and checking and re-reading again to make sure I stay on top of things. Now more than ever, since things are lining up for that

As I may have mentioned before, my favorite book tends to be the one I'm currently working on, so that moves Peripheral to the head of the line. It's also done a pretty stellar job at pushing all other WIPs not only to the back of the line, but over a cliff as well. It's all Peripheral, all the time! Twenty-four hours a day! Live it, breathe it, sleep it!

So anyway, if you find me a little remote or scattered or, well, outright grouchy, that's why.
