Sorry you’re stuck in a work vortex, Devon. And I hope the red flags are easily cleared up. Facing similar flags here, too. I’m not keen on compromising certain standards.

Tourist Hell is a great way to describe it. We have it about three times a year — Memorial Day through the start of school, December (the Continental Army marched in/out in December, and typically Easter break. The main road goes right through the park, so there will inevitably be tourists stopping/parking on the road or half in the road.

I grit my teeth and thank God I work from home.

Thanks to Devon’s inspiration – and advice – I’m planning to try my hand at a couple of radio plays. And I also hope a new assignment to write an article with a local angle on the 100th anniversary of the Suffragette movement will help spur me into creating a series of YA books loosely based on a family member’s experiences during that era.

Much of it is my own fault, because I’m being courted by a potentially big deal new client, but some red flags are showing up.

Where I live, everything revs up for the next three months. We’re in Tourist Hell. So I’m just trying to dig in and deal with one piece at a time.

My schedules are getting all shot to hell right now, so I have to roll, and then recalibrate.
