What did I say ‘way back in … June? I promised a post a week. Then there was vacation and the monster computer crash I think must have been a hack or the equivalent of my computer having a massive stroke. Finally reconstructed the file system enough to find my blog. Great relief … almost everything I do depends in some about this infernal machine.
Glad to be back … a lot to talk about. See you very soon.

I have thought of myself as a writer for most of my adult life. In 2011, I became a fiction writer full time. I studied creative writing as an English major in college. Then came family and career. I worked in finance and biotech and did a wonderful stint in Vienna. Now, I have the opportunity to use those experiences as the substrate for my stories. My first novel takes on the world of Big Data and the very timely issue of cyber war. The second uses the manipulation of financial derivatives as impetus for attempted murder during a trip from Vienna to Budapest on the Danube.
I have taken writing instruction at the Cape Cod Writers Conference and from The Loft in Minneapolis. I am finding writers’ groups to be very helpful as concept editors, as well as practical advice from the published authors. I am in three such groups.

Glad that the tech issues appear to be resolved.
Crossing my fingers … finding more little, irritating stuff every day … makes me realize how harnessed we our to our infernal machines.
The more devices we have, the more we can be sure that every day will bring half and hour of remedial work to get something to work again that was working fine yesterday. Sometime much worse, like monster crash or bad virus. Glad to have you back.
Weaver: Well said, as usual. Those glittering castles of tech in California, adding marvelous riches to our lives, discount the overhead they demand. I feel like Hansel, eating bits of the witch’s delicious home, beginning to suspect that all is not candy and cookies.
