Next morning after Hurricane Ian- all the water ran off, fortunately we had no structural damage. Only trees that can be righted. Photo by @DonMaitz

Another afternoon shot of hurricane Ian at our place, during the day before it got truly bad. Photo by @DonMaitz We do not flood here, but the rain came down so hard the pastures were a massive puddle.

Hurricane Ian, catagory 4 - photo of our place by @donmaitz - late afternoon before it got truly bad. The eye wall grazed us during the night.

This painting by @DonMaitz was stolen from the publisher's office.

If anyone has a clue where it may have landed, we'd love to know what became of it. His agent of record at the time refused to pursue the loss.

[Don Maitz @DonMaitz]

@WBradlau What a long time it has been! Thank you for reaching out. I hope you are doing well.

[Janny Wurts @JannyWurts]

Happy Birthday, Michael! @DonMaitz says the same!!

After 50 years of word crunching, the final book is drafted!

[Janny Wurts @JannyWurts]

Morning After: Song of the Mysteries draft finish/Wars of Light and Shadows finale was completed.

This is my office studio in the moment. If not for Don, the fridge would be empty, there'd be no TP left, the cats would be eating hurricane stash tuna. Just the champagne!
