With my cowriter

A brief note from me to let you know that reports of my disappearance have been widely exaggerated.  I'm still around, but tweeting less and writing less for my personal blog.  I've been quite preoccupied as of late with my joint blog.  I never thought I'd enjoy having a co-writer, having imagined fiery arguments over plot points and character wardrobe selections.  But as it turns out, if you find the right person it's a nourishing creative experience.  Your minds are in sync and your vision is similar, making for "yes, that's perfect" comments and quick calls of "jinx" as we share a similar idea simultaneously.  So right now I'm running free with my cowriter by my side, enjoying the giggling bursts of ideas.  When I need to sneak off for some alone time, I'll come back here. Promise.
