Between the new digs (in progress since March&#33;), the sale of the old house, the living in between houses, and the move into the new house, everything feels weird.<\/p>\n<p>Even being in the new house, we feel like we&#39;re sort of just visiting. Things around us are ours, but the house doesn&#39;t feel like ours yet. And without The Princess, everything just feels&#8230;wrong. We&#39;re working our way through, but it&#39;s been difficult.<\/p>\n<p>And we added a new friend, The Cow, to our family. The Cow is, well, cow-colored and cow-shaped. She&#39;s a sweet dog, but overweight and a bit traumatized by her recent moves (sound familiar?). We&#39;re working with her and giving her tons of love, but it&#39;s taking some time. She&#39;s been moved four times in the last year, including being dumped at a shelter by her original owner. At some point she&#39;ll realize she&#39;s safe here, and will be very verrrry spoiled. In the meantime, we&#39;re waiting for a new fence to go in so she can really enjoy the new yard.<\/p>\n<p>After the first of the year, we&#39;ll be releasing some more books to the Kindle and iPad (and epub) formats. We&#39;re also on the cusp of signing a couple of contracts for new books. I&#39;m looking forward to getting back into the swing and getting these great new books in your hands (or your ereaders).<\/p>\n<p>For those who have been asking, we are not yet on the Nook store, because of a clause in their contract that we cannot agree to. If and when they fix that clause, we&#39;ll move forward in that direction. Until then, you can purchase your epub format books here and transfer them onto your Nook for reading.<\/p>\n<p>There&#39;s been some sort of error, and the [i]Talented Horsewoman[\/i] is available on [url=http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/product\/B003UV98UY]Kindle[\/url] for &#036;2.99 again&#33; You might go try to grab it before Amazon fixes the error. I can&#39;t guarantee how long that will take. (It also means the book is &#036;2.99 on the [url=http:\/\/itunes.apple.com\/ca\/book\/talented-horsewoman\/id395733824?mt=11] iBookstore[\/url] as well&#33;).<\/p>\n<p>We&#39;ve also been pretty quiet on Twitter lately, but I&#39;ll be opening my big mouth again soon&#33; And once our contracts are signed, I&#39;ll be making those announcements as well.<\/p>\n<p>Happy holidays, all&#33;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>So much has been going on around here, with the move and our recent loss (We miss you, The Princess&#33;), that we feel like we&#39;ve been in the middle of quite an upheaval for a long time.
