CNN's Jim Acosta signing off: "I will not give in to the lies. I will not give into the fear. Post it on your social media so people can hear from you too." I will not give in to the lies. I will not give into the fear. Post it on your social media so people can hear from you too. Pass it on.

Here are my Top 5 accomplishments for 2024, in no particular order: 1. I completed my novel 2. I completed my novel 3. I completed my novel 4. I completed my novel 5. I completed my novel

Just checked my QT status table. Bunch of queries are still out there, averaging 50 days. I think I am in many “Maybe” folders. And since Maybe is not No, today is a good day.

I’ve already lost count of how many times we’ve watched The Holiday this year.

I’m really happy to say that I’ve completed my 88,000 word parallel history novel at long last. And now, going to my weekly writers group, critiquing but not being critiqued? Not gonna lie; it feels pretty great. 😀
