In Light at the End of the World, I provide Rick Buchanan's e-mail address (devilray69@gmail.com).  I was hoping that someone would try and send him a message, which "he" would respond to.  Nobody's done it yet.

Oh, well.  I'll just keep trying the whole interactive character thing.  Maybe one day there'll be an enterprising Cricket who'll try it out.

Rick has a Facebook page, too, by the way.  ;)

I amuse myself entirely too much.

In other news, the first 17 minutes of the Collected Poems audio book were sent to me.  I like his performance, but it's really too quiet.  I had to really work to make it out using my computer's speakers.  I asked him to try to boost the volume.  Hopefully he can do so.

The Four Powers is now in the middle of Chapter 10, and I was able to check two more bullet points off of the backchat.  Big Cat asked me yesterday how many chapters I thought the book would be, and I told her, "lots".  I honestly have no idea.  Most of my books run in the 26-chapter range, but I fear this one will be longer.  I'm going to predict 32 chapters.  We'll see whether I'm right or not.

Take it easy in the summer heat, Crickets.  Don't let your exoskeletons get burned by the sun.
