ooo! Sekrit admirer!

So I return to my computer to try to catch up on emails, and find that someone has sent me an anonymous gift through LJ!  Glitterati sunglasses, no less!  I can has fabulousness!!

*puts sunglasses on, looks awesome, can't see the screen*  Ah, well!

If the sekrit donor is reading this, thank you very much!

And as long as I'm doing a weekend post, here's a progress report:  barring one of those unforeseeable mutations that can happen in a story, Reverb has two more chapters to go, plus an epilogue -- around another 10,000 to 12,000 words, I think.  Because I have a lot of story to wrap up, I'm writing both of the final chapters at once.

So Chapter 13, although it's finally progressing well, is still a long ways from finished.  The good news is that, although the lag before the posting of chapter 13 is running even longer than usual, the lag between chapter 13 and chapter 14 is likely to be a lot shorter.  (And when you see how chapter 13 ends, you might be glad for that.  Or you might want to throw things.)

Many many hugs and thanks to everyone who's been giving me support and feedback, not to mention my inestimable Research Assistants!  You folks rock.
