I’m making good progress on my new mystery novel, but can do better. (The same goes for my exercise routine).

Went out to the movies, saw IF. Very ambitious storytelling. Was totally impressed. Visits to the Snake Farm and later in the week to Natural Caverns Wildlife Drive-through Park were fun. I’m re-reading Sherry Thomas’s 7^th Sherlock Holmes novel waiting on the 8^th to come out. Am still reading Gai-Jin, the twenty pound hardback I wish was on my Kindle instead.

And just found that Chris Pine is going to be at one of the San Antonio comic-cons this summer. Have to think about it. Do I want to see this other version of Captain Kirk after seeing William Shatner at least three times already?

Forgotten Bones, the mystery novel by Vivian Barz is one of the latest books I’ve finished reading. It was so good that I eventually stayed up all night while on vacation to finish it. Highly recommended, except for the first salacious chapter that almost made me discard the book.

Took mystery writer Patrick Kelly out to lunch (Terry Black’s BBQ). He’s an author to watch. All of his books are very good.

Binge watched Season 2 of The Mandalorian, binge watched Season 1 of The Amazing Race. Watched The Kentucky Derby (after watching the movie Secretariat). And am working on my mystery novel again.
