Well, that's different.

I have written the last chapter of The True Tale of Carter Hall. For those of you new here, that doesn't mean I have a complete draft -- I write out of order. But I'm done with the very ending.

It might change in revisions, but right now the last word is "hotdish."

This pleases me.

Yah, it's all us. But this book is veryvery Minnesotan, so it's okay.

Icon love, by the way.

Yeah... The hardest part was NOT getting Maggie to wear a "string toupe". It was getting her to wear a string toupe while standing still enough NOT to be a thrilled-to-be-helping doofusy blur on my crappy-phone-cam. Jasmine was easy as she ALWAYS looks exasperated by Maggie's antics. My Internal Dog Dialog was something like this:

Maggie: WHEEEEEHOOO! MOM'S HOME FROM WORK! YAY! WE CAN HELP HER WITH STRING!
Jasmine: Liz... About the crack you feed that other dog? We need to chat.
Me: Here Maggie, put this on your head.
Maggie: STRINGSTRINGSTRING! w00t! WHEEEEEEEEEEEE! *prancing around in a circle in a string toupe until it falls off. Patiently stands still so I can put it back on. Continues prancing in a circle until it falls off again."
Jasmine: Dad. About the crack Liz is putting in her own food...

Sometimes the overwhelming good sense of the canine members of the household is hilarious.

Had you not already said this, I would have commented with "Very Minnesotan of you".

But, I won't.
