My battle with draft three of Blood Red Shoes continues unabated. I rather desperately wanted to finish by Valentine’s Day but that didn’t happen. My secondary deadline was March 1–too bad. So now I’m wrangling, wrangling, wrangling, and far too busy to write a proper blog post.
I offer instead a couple of pictures, taken within a couple of weeks. One is Ticino, on the Italian border, the other Kandersteg, where I went for a rather disastrous ski trip. For a small country, Switzerland is very diverse, astonishingly various. Sadly, until this book is done, I won’t see very much more of it.

Good Luck! Maybe you should make an ides of march deadline? In any case, hope you are able to finish it up soon.
