Almost finished with the first draft of my middle grade novel. The
current word count stands at 76864 and I'm expecting it to top out at about 80k. Hard work but very satisfying.

Submitted
the stage version of Road Trip to Samuel French, a well-respected publisher of plays. They say it can take anywhere from 12 weeks
to a full year to make a decision so don't expect any updates anytime in the near future.

Still chugging away on the first draft
of my novel "Leonard the Great". Word count as of this posting: 57,306. I'm expecting the final tally to be somewhere in the 65-75k
range.

Friends of sillyroger.com will be saddened to hear of the passing of Crazy Cosmo, the only dog ever born with a nuclear reactor
in place of a heart. Just short of 16 years old, he was a good boy and will be missed.
