Don’t you just love it when someone keeps a blog, neglects it, then starts the first post in a month with a boring mea culpa about why the posts haven’t been more frequent? My bad …

Fortunately, I’ve been busy since my last dispatch. Houston magazine assigned me three fairly involved stories for their December issue, and I picked up a corporate client who found me through my Web site. Meantime, the following stories ran and/or were made available to me:

- A feature on the Reliable Source, the National Press Club bar, in Bartender Magazine
- An FOB on leasing the luxury lifestyle in Houston magazine
- Another short feature for American City and County on converting school playgrounds to public parks
- An A1 story in the venerable Washington Times on immigration enforcement in a Houston jail

I’ve also been working on a column for Culturemap.com, a killer new site edited by the Chron’s former style editor that has some of Houston’s best freelancers keeping the world posted on the city’s arts, entertainment, food and news.

In other news, preparations for Peru are going well, and I’m planning a road trip north for Christmas that should take me through Acuna, Mexico en route to Phoenix, Idaho, Wyoming and Montana. Stay tuned.
