| Luna moth larva |
In August, while hiking to the
Indian Council Caves in Barkhamsted, my brother found this plump green caterpillar. I did a little bit of research and discovered it was a
luna moth larva. The hike was up and down, which wasn't so bad, but hot and humid conditions made it seem enduring.

This past week, I reviewed three edited articles. Two are expected to be published in
MUSE in January. The other one, for
Highlights, has a target publication date of May 2016. I'm really happy with both of them. The edits were small, but they've enhanced the text.

| It seemed like everything we encountered was immense. |
Recently, I restructured a middle grade manuscript and turned chapters 1 and 2 into chapters 4 and 5. The end result was that my manuscript, that was ready to send out, had become far from ready--the first chapters were gone. So, I've been real busy writing the front end (chapters 1 and 2). My goal was to have at least five pages ready for a retreat I'm going to in November. I wound up chopping chapter 1 in half and was delighted that I once again had two chapters! They still need some work, but the story is there.
