Working on the Cover for "La Bruja del Barrio Loco" and Writing Progress

At Starbucks in Hyde Park on a Mom-Son date.

I got the first set of images for the story cover.  We are focusing on the heart imagery, but I asked the designer, my friend Marcy Rae Henry, to add a bee and maybe a corn husk rope, which were key parts in the story.  I am not picky, since the artist is doing me a solid.  Here is that short story draft, if you missed it:  https://www.barrioblues.com/un-blog-de-writing-musings/finally-finished-my-novella-draft

I am paying the editor this weekend if I can, and my other friend who is editing the story collection.  I hope to get at least something out before Christmas.

That's all I have because I need to grade.  I am at Starbucks with my son, trying to get some work done.  Plus, I have been battling a cold, and my energy is low. 

On a high note, the damn draft of my novel finally posted.  The WiFi gods can be such bastards sometimes, but here you are:  The Harvest.

Here's to writing and publishing progress and to the mother fucking WiFi gods.  #Resist
