So I spent this weekend editing Claimings 4.  I'm still working slower than I'm used to, but I hate to push myself too hard because the final diagnosis from the car accident was a mild concussion.  First, even a very mild concussion is a bit of a pain. My doctor pointing out that as we get older it's harder to shake off symptoms doesn't help much. I'm fifty, not ninety.  Worse, he's right. Second, I had no idea you even could get a concussion from the brain hitting the skull.  That seems like a design flaw in the sheer lack of cushion.  But I am expecting to get more than the five hundred the insurance company first offered to settle the medical.  My car was a 2002, so I only got a little under two grand for it when they totalled it.  I'm not going to clean up, and I don't expect to, but I am hoping to get enough that I can pay off the new(er) car in two or three years.

Can't write stories with your brain scrambled. You take care of you, your fans will still be here. Glad you're ok.

As much as I'm looking forward to Claimings 4, take it easy. Your fans can wait.

I agree. Don't push too hard and make it worse. Patience is a virtue. (Sometimes hard to come by, but a virtue, nonetheless.) :) <3

I can check for typos in the posts for claimings if you think it would help. let me know. I read through it too quickly to pay attention before.

I was so sorry to read about your car accident, and I am just happy to hear you are getting better. I am a fan of your work, claimings is one of my favorite sci-fi series of all time, the Aberrant Magic-series is also wonderful, and I would put Jacqs from Turbulence on my top-5-MC-list. I am grateful for this chance to support you and your writing (and I promise to leave some reviews on amazon as soon as they fix their reviews service-issue). I hope you feel better soon, concussions can take a long time to heal but as much as I love your writing it's hardly worth your health. Best wishes from Ireland.

Lyn, hopefully you feel better by now! To be honest, I do worry a bit. 😳 Take care and get better soon, and all

damned, it happens ever and ever again that I send a post without meaning to! 🤫 I wanted to write: get better and all the best. 😊

Thank you so much. It really did throw me for a loop, but I'm getting back into the swing of life and writing. And I really appreciate all the kind words about my universes. I love knowing that they have a spot in others' hearts.

I appreciate the offer, but I'm on a second round of edits from a professional editor, so I think I'm good with that story.

Thank you. I can't say that's one of the virtues I possess, but the body has forced me to slow down a little.

Oh I know that. The writing I have done has taken much more work that normal, but it's all getting better.
