Well, it happens sometimes, a sense that somehow everything will come through. The beach is just empty enough, the feeling rough and semi-backpackerish, not every nook and cranny of Asia is slated for over-exploitation. Though it is coming, I am sure. As is Arisugawa Park. Okay, I will not lie... losing my computer was a major blow, I put in much revision work with Nils that can never be recovered, unless said device magically pops up on the FindYourMac app (reward offered, no questions asked).
But you know I am quite sure now that it is only a matter of time––with the half-hearted agent out of the equation, I am truly the driver of this ship. Sure, Cowachunga may languish, but it is time to put Arisugawa Park out there for the world. Reputations have rested on slimmer accomplishments than a single book––Just ask Harper Lee (RIP, along with Umberto Eco).
I am thinking Ari Park will appear in serial format, one section on this here blog every couple days. Hopefully that gets the ball rolling, to the point where an audience emerges. Are people still paying attention, reading? Publishers apparently believe they are not. But I counter that with a nod to the deceptive poll results in this roller coaster election cycle. You think you know until you don't.

If you ever think you have it bad, just remember there is only one way to get a tricycle that far up a car with no apparent damage. The dragon eats its tail.
