It is almost dawn and I am writing this in a hotel near the Tokyo airport, where we spent a sleepless night on the first leg of a quick trip from Beijing to Manhattan. My blogging has been at a minimum this past week or so due to a deadline on a chapter of a book that I had to get to my publisher before leaving for the trip. While it took two all-nighters, the chapter was finished an zipped off to my editor only a few hours ago.
Unfortunately, my blogging will remain spotty due to the trip to New York. It is a short trip; we will return next Thursday, June 3rd. Thank you all for your patience and support.
