A really nice person asked me this week why I haven’t been blogging. I explained I’m focused on editing the novel, trying to incorporate the great suggestions I received, but that’s only half the truth. The real answer is… I’ve been having too much fun!! Between attending high school football games, band competitions, & band concerts, going on beach trips, having house guests, visiting Mom, going to wineries, laughing over lunches (or dinners) with friends, singing Beatles songs, stealing kisses from my Hubby while he plays the guitar, and raking ‘AN ACRE OF TREES’ (or, rather, watching him rake while I sip cider back by the bonfire), there hasn’t been a lot of time this fall to write.
