[Note to Readers: This morning I go into the studio to record the audiobook version of The Little Way of Ruthie Leming. It will be a daylong process, breaking only for lunch, and I’ll be in the studio today, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday. I’m going to pre-load posts to run throughout the week when I’m away, to keep the blog going, but please know that I will not be able to approve comments from the morning until I’m on my lunch break, and that I will not be able to approve afternoon comments until the day is over. Don’t panic if you don’t see your comments; I’ll post them when I can. Thanks for your patience. — RD]
