At long last, **The Scarecrow of _Os_** has been published in _Classical World_. A refereed journal, no less. Volume 107 Number 3, pp. 383-392 (Spring 2014). It addresses things I’ve learned since **Medusa** got published, fourteen years ago. Not all of them (it got cut twice), but at least some of them finally got into print.  
(Heck, I’ve already got a list of things I’ve learned since **Zap!** got published last fall.)

I’ve been working madly on my next mythology book, **Sons of God**. I ignored what I’ve already written and started from scratch, and am on the fourth chapter already.

Congratulations 🙂

You will let us know when the book is published, right? Right?

I just got my contributor’s copy in the mail today. I was afraid they weren’t going to send me one, and that I’d have to track down a copy at the library.
