The only thing missing is ‘rithmetic.  But I’ve been doing a lot of reading and even more writing.  I haven’t written much on my 2nd novel, but lately that’s changed.  I’ve been putting in few hundred words a day into it. I’ve still not broken big ground with the first one, but that’s fine. I don’t even have high hopes of doing it with this one, but it makes me happy to write.I might try the Lulu route to getting it published.

I had been spending time doing a lot of writing on my ulsanonline.com website but that has taken a back seat. I still write for it but I’m ok with getting in an article a week rather than 4 or 5 a week. These days, the movies section (translating the Korean theater listings of Hollywood movies into English) consumes more time than actually writing original material.

The reading has also been going at a fireball’s pace. I had been pacing myself, trying not to read too much and thus run out of material. But a friend gave me a few nice novels and I’m not so worried about exhausting my supply of prose.

Anyway, that’s all for now. Just wanted to poke my head in and say howdy to everyone.
