I retired from book publishing! It's been about four years now since my reprieve from the Governor and I'm no longer incarcerated by corporal punishment (er, I mean, corporate publishing). <br /> <br /> Believe it or not, I have been working as a technical writer in government contracting. First of all, it PAYS. And it pays WELL. Who cares about all the other reasons, right? Seriously, I love it. I was born to be a technical writer and editor.<br /> <br /> But I'm still trying to find more time to write creatively. So I have some new stories I'm contributing to the Divine Miss Caroline. <br />
