Well, so far so good, flood-wise. Still high and dry.

I've been working on some fun promotional items for Ordinary Beauty's debut. The galleys are out, the appearances being scheduled, and I'm excited.
 
I found  this link to Goodreads.com, and a page where, to my delight, readers can list their favorite quotes from the books they've read, and here are some they've listed of mine:
http://www.goodreads.com/author/quotes/93971.Laura_Wiess

One close to the bottom of the list, the one referring to Home, is not my quote. I didn't make that one up. That's Vernon Baker's, and so even though I love his words, I can't claim them. Funny. Proper credit was given in the book, and I guess the reader just liked it so much -- like I did -- that they missed who actually said it.

And spring is coming, right? At least that's the rumor.
