Hahahah, that is really good. I think my wife wishes she married a bee. I do manage to wash the dishes every night, but other than that I'm a bit crap around the house.
I'm glad you asked about James. I've been wrestling big time with two alternate endings for the story. I think I have it all figured out now--the danger of writing on the fly is sometimes you write yourself into a bit of a corner--so he should start making his appearance again early next week. Sorry about the delay on "The Hunt".
I watched a program last night on TV, about an author being murdered, it was just fiction, but he always wrote the end to his stories first, his famous quote was, a "A great story always starts with a good ending."
Yeah, I need to do that. One of my favorite (maybe top twenty or so) authors wrote a 15 book series called The Wheel of Time. His name was Robert Jordan. Then, three books before finishing the series, he died. They brought in another author to finish the series, and he did a reasonably good job, but it just wasn't quite the same. I hope I don't die this weekend before I can post the rest of The Hunt. ;)
