Dragon's Source & Catching Up with the Browns
The blog for the book is http://dragonssource.blogspot.com/
Wow! Sorry we haven't updated in a few weeks. The list seems endless, and I'm not complaining!
I'm still working on getting Dragon's Source published, and while I've been sending the letters out fast and furious, I've been using the time to edit and rewrite whenever possible. during the editing process, the book has grown from 94,000 words, to 97,207! It's getting to the point that I'm afraid to read it again.
The cover art is finished (see photo) and I like it alot! The problem is that publishers rarely allow the author any say on the cover art, so I may have been wasting my time. I hope not, because I've seen some really poor covers on the shelves.
Chris is doing great! She's currently working in Billings and home on the weekends.
The bad news is that my little brother's wife, Neva, passed away last Sunday morning after a long fight with breast cancer. The memorial service is in Henderson, Nev. on the 6th of June, and we will be traveling down with Mom and Mac. It will be the first time we've been there since we left over 25 years ago. I can't imagine how Scott is coping. I know that if I were in his shoes, I'd be a basket case. I can't think of anything that I could say to him that would make him feel better. We had to hide from the fear of Chris' cancer this last year, and we're so grateful that she is cancer-free right now. The really scary thing is that the doctors told Scott and Neva that she was cancer-free as well, and then found out that they had read the tests wrong.
I hope everyone will keep Scott and the kids in your prayers. I'm sure he needs them.

Some people thought that the speeches were just the teensiest bit too long.

We are so proud of them both!
