Why The Bard May Miss Blogfest

The mysterious Bard of Sherman Avenue reveals a little of himself this afternoon, in explaining why he may be forced to miss Blogfest 2015 (which appears to be headed for a Saturday, Feb. 21, staging this year:

“I missed Blogfest 2014, missed my target date for the Bard book, and now it seems I may miss Blogfest 2015 too. I may have some ‘splaining to do, lest some folks think I ‘m just shining them on. My explanation: cancer. I’ve been in treatment since fall 2013, when I was first diagnosed and underwent a couple of surgeries for head and neck cancer.  After a period of recovery and monitoring — and just when I was starting to feel pretty darn good again —  late last summer I learned it had recurred and metastasized. I’m lucky, because the doctors say in my case there’s a good chance of not only control but actual cure.” More here.
