The drag is that I was a couple hundred pages into a new novel, mainstream,
when the events of 9/11 happened and I had to spike the novel because
everything that happened since that day (with a few minor variations) lined up
pretty much with my book, which kills any chance of publishing it.

Takes a while to come back from looking at two-hundred-plus dead pages.

On a happier note, I'm in the process of signing a deal that will put all three
of my novels, plus my anthology, back into print early next year.
