A bit of a close call. I hope the recovery continues steadily. It’s a bugger this getting old, that’s when we mostly get these brushes with danger.

Anyway, I just thought I hadn’t been here for a while and I should look in. This was up front.  Take it steady and get well.

I’m late to this – I seem to be late to a lot of stuff these days. Anyway, I have always liked the style of Patricia Highsmith. This is mainly, I think, because she does bad guys so deliciously. Her stuff is quite dark and sometimes the bad guy gets to win. It was because of her I set myself a challenge to write a story with absolutely no good guys. I managed a short story that went fairly well. I don’t think I could do a full length novel that way though.
