Tomorrow's the big day! We're appearing at Borders in Tustin for the Grand Opening celebration. We're the opening act for Wyland!

 We'll be taking part in a panel discussion on How to Travel the World Without Being the Ugly American. Joining us will be two other Lagunita Writers authors, Christie Shary and Margie Taylor. We're excited about being able to take part in an event which should be well-attended and (hopefully) create more name recognition.

 Getting ready for this thing, however, has taken time away from writing. Our second mystery, Murder in Paradise, is only about half completed. As soon as this is over, we need to buckle down and get it finished. Our first one, Murder … They Wrote, is under consideration for publication. All fingers and toes are crossed. Both of ours!

 Len and Luanna Rugh's book, Promises Kept: From Tragedy to Triumph, has been submitted again. Lots of prayers going out for publication of that one too. Len's given over twenty years of his life to it. Lu's spent about eight. And it's a great book.

 Most of our time is spent working … and working. Can't wait for retirement!

 Wish us luck tomorrow.
