Short Blathering today. I'm busy working on the liner notes, Market Watch, and my column for Writing World (due on Monday), all of which are taking me much longer, of course, than they would if I had full use of my arms. It's a challenge not to spend too much time on the keyboard; even with ViaVoice, I always end up using the mouse to some extent. I pushed my arms a little bit yesterday; they are a bit sore this morning. I am going to take more breaks today.

I was really touched yesterday by the response to my plea for help with the liner notes. Thank you so much, everyone! As I mentioned yesterday later in the afternoon, David Barker and my sister helped me with the text editing, which is basically finished...just need to work with the Illustrator layout now. Ruth is also coming over tonight to draw a cartoon or two for the liner notes, yay! I had been hoping to add some myself, but am still unable to draw. :-(

Before I end this Blathering, here are a few links for your amusement:
