It’s been a while since the last update. Sneha and I (mainly her though) have been really busy trying to illustrate and publish two children’s books and get the book from the workshop to press. It’s been very very stressful, to say the least. We have felt the runaround a few times, but we kept on pushing through. My mom and aunt Betsey also arrived a week ago. So, for a week or so I juggled them and work but now (!) we all have decided to take a break. Before we left for our five day vacations, Sneha and I went to the school to attend a celebration for the 10th graders who passed their SLC exams. We paid a visit to the library as well since we haven’t really been there for a few weeks. And guess what? The beautiful wood furniture is being eaten by termites! I’m thinking it’s likely the termites came with the furniture because the other wooden furniture in the school is in tact, but we’ll need to do some investigation and get to the bottom of this. Two of the three books go to press this Sunday and the inauguration for the library is set (and not changing) for Friday, August 21st. I’ve gotten some great job offers, but I’m still waiting to hear from others. So, I think I’m going to try to stick around Nepal/India at least for a few weeks until I hear! Hopefully I can load more pictures soon!
