What I'm Working on Now

Hm.  The book I was using as a mental break from my book currently making the rounds suddenly stalled when I got this whole idea for a new book which, I kid you not, might include cement munching cows.  Should I listen to my seven year old when I'm casting about for ideas?  Absolutely.  Should I listen to him when he suggests that pants shouldn't be part of a daily routine?  Probably not.
