I’m slowly getting through all the stuff that accumulated over the last six weeks. The piles of paper are diminishing, all the immediate crises have been averted, I’ve made a small clean spot in the office and uncovered half the desk! (The other half has novel manuscript pages on it, and is exempt from regular cleaning.)<\/p>\n

And I’ve just re-opened the store<\/a>. I really hated to close it in the first place, but there was no way I could do all my work and<\/i> run a business. Fortunately I can do that when necessary, and I hope that it isn’t necessary again. If you’re one of my customers, thanks for your patience. I updated the international shipping set-up. It doesn’t look like I broke anything, but if you have trouble do let me know.<\/p>\n

It’s good<\/i>.)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
