Great News!

I got some very Good News yesterday!
I don't know if y'all remember me talking about my book The Sweet One several months ago. Yesterday I got the happy news that a very upcoming publishing company, Silver Publishing, wants to publish it. YAY! I'm even more pleased that I've already been given the release date of November 13th of this year.
I'm honored to be published with some other authors that are definitely some of my favorites!

I've been revamping my Work in Progress, Yummy Indulgences. I'm also in the mist of writing a Halloween and possibly a Christmas story, but both are going rather slow right now.

I hope y'all are all doing great and have had a fun summer. It's been so miserably hot here, I'm really ready for it to cool off and for it to be fall again.

UGH!

Not a lot has been going on with me. I've been bothered by self doubt and stress over doing a good job with my writing. I wonder if that gets any easier. Do we build more self confidence in our abilities as we gain experience and get older and wiser?

I have a lot of writing to do, and very little time to do it. I keep writing, re-reading, re-checking and writing over what I've done. UGH! I think I'm working myself up too much, but I'll get it done or kill myself trying to do it.

I hope it gets easier as time rolls on!

Happy Birthday Drew!

Happy Birthday, Drew!
I'm sorry that my birthday greeting is late! I just got home today and I finally have signal again! YAY!
May you have many happy years to come! Happy Birthday!

I'll be back

I don't know if you've heard, but Arkansas has been hit by tornados two days in a row. It hit the East End community twice and has destroyed a church, homes and taken lives. I grew up and spent half of my life in that community.
My mother still lives there, and was lucky enough to escape the tornados path. Twice.
I'm going to away for a few days because I'm going to my mother's house to spend some time with her and see if there is anything I can do in my old community and to be perfectly honest, to hug my mother's neck.
I really need to write, but right now I need to see my mother more.
This could have ended up a lot differently.
Thank God it didn't!

I'll probably be away for several days. I'll let you know when I'm back.

Y'all have a great week.
