So I basically haven’t written regularly since, like, early February, when I was finishing up the short stories for And Then I Shall Transform. Then it was straight into the mayhem of formatting and publication tasks for that book, since I hadn’t really left myself enough time to do that AND write – see here […]

Had an interesting experience earlier in the year when doing the illustrations for And Then I Shall Transform: there are six short stories, so obviously I did six illustrations… except I ended up doing seven.
