I hope everyone has a happy Memorial Day weekend.  Be safe if you’re traveling.   For those of you who don’t live in the US, this is the official start of summer, at least in Texas.  I don’t know about states in the northern part of the country.  The public schools still have a week to go, but it’s mostly final exams and graduations.

Summer classes for me will start on June 1.  I’m not teaching the first summer term, but I will the second.  I’ll still be making sure the labs run smoothly no matter what.

I’m hoping to get caught up on a few titles I’ve started and never finished.  I’m hoping I can get more reading done than I have been lately.  I’m also hoping to get back on track writing fiction on a regular basis.  I’ve got one story I need to finish by the end of the week.

I’ve mentioned a few times that I’ve got a major post I’ve been working on.  I managed to finish it today.  It will go live Tuesday with a followup on Wednesday.  After that, I’ll review the latest issue of Heroic Fantasy Quarterly.

That’s about all I’ve got for an update.  For those of you who are celebrating, have a safe and happy Memorial Day.

Finally I would like to thank all members of the military for their service.
