I am in Austin, Texas today, participating in an International Baccalaureate program.  I got here early Sunday morning, after having flown all night.  Yesterday and today I am enjoying some seminars and workshops on teaching.  Austin is a lovely city, but I am melting from the humidity.  Coming from the desert, I have no problem walking around in 110 degree heat, but 90 degrees with 90% humidity kills me.  Fortunately everything (cars and buildings at least that I’ve been in) has air conditioning.

Due to this IB Conference, I won’t be getting much writing done over the next three days.  I am really close to the end of the draft of “The Price of Magic.”  I’ll keep you informed.
