Friday Ramblings From An Author-Is It March?
Today I feel like someone’s fast forwarded the calendar and it’s really the end of March. I sat outside on the deck and couldn’t believe that it is in reality only mid-February. The sun was shining and birds were showing up in the garden and singing a spring chorus. I guess they’re as confused as I am…

Friday Ramblings From An Author-Teaching On a New Venue
Happy Friday to everyone. It’s crazy to think it’s already the 20th of the month. I got lots done this week including uploading some of my writing workshops to a new platform over at Teachable.

Friday Ramblings From An Author-Another Week of This and That
Happy Friday everyone. It’s been another week of what I now call this and that. A mixed bag of things I’ve done and achieved. I finally got the print version of How to Write A Romance Novel proofed and it’s now on sale at Amazon. I might add a print Nook version somewhere down the…
