Does this thing even still work?

It looks like it has been nearly a year since I’ve posted. Who knew? Back in March of last year, I got slammed with a new case and pretty much didn’t sleep until September. (I’m exaggerating. A little.) After that, I think I spent the rest of the year as a zombie, shambling about in a daze. I haven’t been around LJ at all, but it did recently occur to me that the crackiversary came and went without fanfare, and I began to wonder if I was in the mood to write again. (After writing over 700 pages for work in the space of a few months, I wasn’t sure I’d ever be in the mood to write again.) More about the fate of Resurrection next time, but for now I figured I’d just post to break the ice and clear the dust. It helps that today’s a snow day and I’m hanging out in Starbucks with my computer for the first time since . . . finishing up with Ties that Break? I think so.

Hope you’ve all had a good year. I think I’ve a couple comments that I never responded to, which I will check shortly. Sorry about that.

Also, coming soon, a belated report on 2009 in books! It was less than a stellar year for reading, but you know I’ve got to keep track of these things in the quest to stem the tide of books that somehow just keeps flowing into my apartment.
