Here is to another week in the history books and it was a good one. We had a nice rain on Wednesday which all of the plants appreciated. I am looking forward to the visit of an old friend. I guess it has been about three years since we last got together. I’m looking forward to a weekend of catching up and relaxing. Still doing the edits on Circumstances of Childhood and am pretty pleased how it is coming out. The beta readers did a swell job on finding the weak points so all in all, I’m grateful to them. This book has me quite nervous as it stretches a few boundaries in style and point of view. I suppose I will just have to tough it through and hope the reader will enjoy it. I think another reason I’m a little nervous since I enjoyed writing this book and just hope it is not too self-indulgent. Time will tell.
This week’s JohnKu is about friendship. I hope you all have a beautiful weekend.

A number of years,
Not always in the same town. . .
Yet soul connected.

I think we all second guess ourselves and worry when we get close to releasing something.
I’m sure the book will be wonderful. Enjoy the reunion with your friend. It’s always fun to catch up with someone we haven’t seen in a while!

I can relate to your JohnKu this week — I love having new friends, but sometimes we just need those *old* friends — the ones who’ve been with us through thick and thin. Enjoy your visit and don’t fret over the book!
