In Case You Were Wondering...

No, I haven't disappeared, and I apologize for not filling you all in before now.

I have an old spinal cord injury that has resulted in a pinched nerve in my back. You'll never guess what makes it hurt the worst - you got it, typing.

I've been in therapy for about four months now to straighten my spine and try to relieve the pressure. Unfortunately, until further notice, I have been asked to abstain from all typing that isn't absolutely necessary. Since I'm a technical writer at the day job (and that sorta pays the bills and provides me health insurance) and I have two books releasing next year, my blog was one of the casualties.

I DO post every Monday at Killer Fiction Writers. If you haven't checked it out yet, please do. It's a blog of five fabulous humorous mystery writers. You're guaranteed to have a good time.

And look for my next book, TROUBLE IN MUDBUG, on 1/27/09. It's the first in the GHOST-IN-LAW mystery/romance series.

I hope to be back soon!

HOLY CRAP been wondering where the H you've been. Talk about being worried sick. At least I know sort of what's going on. Whew.

Hey Jana, have you thought about getting one of those split keyboards that Stephen Hawking used to use? You have to re-teach yourself to type, but you can do it in a damned near recumbent position. Just a thought :)

You're officially in my prayers. As a fellow L4-L5 bulging disc endurer, back pain is particularly nefarious because it effects so many things--eating, sleeping, basic mobility and self defense against hostile UFO's.

I enjoyed what I saw of your blogs, hope to see you up and at them soon. Toodles.
