I haven’t forgotten…

This blog’s been lulling because I’ve been writing like crazy. Kimiko and the Accidental Proposal is culminating all over the place, with scenes coming thick and fast. “Write while the writing’s good!” I always say. Once I catch my breath, I’ll draw winners for the Review Challenge prizes. Honest.
