Brief Update and Online Hiatus
We’re dealing with some family stuff. I may go into detail later, but for now, just know that blogging and social media are going to be sparse to nonexistent for the foreseeable future. I’m also going to be worse than usual about responding to most emails and such.
For readers wondering about book three, this does mean Terminal Peace is likely to be a bit delayed. How much is impossible for me to say right now.
I know this is … well, a bit ominous, and I’m sorry for making people worry without providing any specifics.
Love to you all.

Sending so many good thoughts your way and to your family, Jim. You are an excellent editor & writer (and recipe maker), Invisible 3 was a wonderful project to work with you on, and I am so glad to know you. Wishing you well.

There is no need to tell us family business, Jim, unless you wish to. We have no right to know it–you do not exist only for us. Be who you are, do what you need to, share with us only what you wish. We care more about you than we do your media presence.
We do all send such supportive thoughts as we can, and will think of you often until you come through.
