I've been a bit absent of late, my apologies for that. In my defense, my other life has me coming to the end of a semester and neck deep in all the inherent joy of preparing for final exams and critiques, thus with a decided lack of available time for such things as I enjoy doing, like writing, that don't actually promote those ends. Once I complete the semester, though, it's game on and full steam ahead for all of my writing projects. In fact, I have an entire week and a half of much needed vacation before I start my full time job for the summer and I hope to, at the very least, complete my short story and submit it for publishing and also write the final two chapters of a project that has been on the books (on and off) for the last six years. It won't be submitted for publishing any time soon, as it needs massive overhaul - the change in my writing style over that period of time has been fairly significant and the early story in particular just needs serious work - but the plan is eventually to submit that one as well.
In the meanwhile, I couldn't resist a little Tattoo Tuesday action. Without further adieu, I give to you Jamie Dominic.
