I hope to have it completed … soon? (I’m currently at 11,000 words; I’m guessing it should be maybe … 16,000.)

I’ll be releasing it for free right here on the blog. I’ll keep you guys posted.

I found this … painted moth?

Enameled gadfly?  Acrylic stinkbug?

What am I, an entomologist?  You people tell ME what it is.

[Update : Blog Correspondent Pete Harrison just informed that this is Atteva aurea, or the Ailanthus Webworm Moth.  No … I have no idea how he knows these things either.]
