Starting a Blog...

Here goes! I am starting my first blog. I spent the last three years working quietly, but I'd like to start keeping a record of my thoughts while I work on my second book.

Right now, I'm getting ready to fly to L.A., to go the BEA (the Book Expo America). I can't wait! I'll be meeting my Agent, Editor, and the other good people of Candlewick Press, and then I will be signing demo copies of my first book - Swords: An Artist's Devotion.

These next months are going to be so exciting as I await D-day --- That's when the book will hit the shelves. By the way, that'll be on Sept. 9th, 2008. OMG, it's nearly here, after such a long wait. :)
