New developments in the series. Book V is now Book VI, and vice versa. I'm currently writing Book V, researching the cat species Leopardus pardalis. They sound an awful lot of work to have as pets. If you have one, I'd appreciate hearing from you. The issue of keeping this species healthy (& alive) by encouraging owners to participate in captivity breeding programs is a double-edged sword.

Writing is easy when the weather outside is so cold, damp & bleak. This is the house Charles Dickens lived in (not really, but it feels like it). The new storyline is cheering me up. Once again I cannot decide which character I like the best. Perhaps it's Jin, this book. No, make that Meera. I also haven't decided if Feynman will die or not. This is worrisome. Perhaps I need to have this indecision to write in a worried voice. I certainly am fearful for him. Poor Feynman. I wish I could tell you more, but it's still being born.
