[As usual, three weeks lag here, if you aren’t reading this on my Patreon (https://www.patreon.com/blazeward). If you’d like your news fresher, and the monthly Anti-Stodgy/Redneck Chef newsletter, all I ask is a buck to help keep the lights on around here.]

Skipped a week, in case you didn’t notice. Also having issues with the damned auto-delivery function not sending out messages on time, so I have to kick it manually.

Got back from Vegas Friday LATE so I could sleep in my own bed and be ready for a whole second event Sat in Enumclaw, where they did the annual Wine Walk. Lots of traffic. Sold a few books. Made a bunch of new friends.

Met a bunch of folks last week. Still catching up on that. And hosted a meetup, was on two panels, and gave a Ted Talk sort of thing that seemed to be well received. There will be a watch party for folks in the spring and an AMA with it.

If I owe you something, email me, because social media is a deep in gators right now as I catch up.

Should finish Red Branch #4 this week. Then some short stuff before I go on to Corsac For 7 (The end of block one) and then I’m not sure. Still catching up this morning because been so damned busy and then trying to regain momentum. Gonna keep this short so I can turn around and write the newsletter I owe you.

Have a good week
