If there were 48 hours in a day... - seriously, Kura is taking up a lot of
time, I've started working full days again, and I still like to spend some
time with my children, not to mention the Valdyas roleplaying campaign...
And while I expect I could write _a_ book, I'm not sure I could find a
publisher - it would be something close to social sciences/ literary
sciences/ applied psychology (like Allan Fine's book on roleplaying
games), and that's not really my field, so I would have to do a lot of
studying first.
