My mother, who is active in politics in New Hampshire, was asked to be in a commercial for a gubernatorial candidate she supports. The result is here. She is one of the zombies in the crowd. Yes, zombies.
(The background on this is: all NH governors and candidates for governor are asked to sign a pledge saying they won't raise taxes or introduce any new taxes. Yes, American politics at its finest. And this candidate says the pledge-takers are zombies. I just say, BRRAAIIINNSSSS.)
Meanwhile, I am (oh help) working on two fics simultaneously, and enjoying the morning's cool weather (won't last, unfortunately).
ETA: I love writing characters like Hathaway, because I can just let loose with words. The trouble with warding off grief and remorse by means of industry was that he solved the case all too soon, through perseverance and logic and damnable luck: a thinking machine burrowing into the soft heart of malfeasance like a monstrous drill. Much too fun.
Yes, I am working on the Betans too. :)

My poor son was due to go spend the morning at a forest adventure park, which had to be hastily reorganised to an indoor play centre because it was TIPPING it down this morning. And I'd left my washing on the line, too...
