Here’s the last sentence of my new novel MORE TO LIFE. I’m reminded of something Margaret told me: “You just keep living until you die. Make sense?” @seniorsaction.bsky.social @wetheseniors.bsky.social #readers #books #novels #writingcommunity #bskybooks

Here’s the first line of my new novel just out from Legacy Book Press: “So this is where you’ve brought me to die.” #writingcommunity #amwriting #Books #Booksky #Reading @wetheseniors.bsky.social @seniorfitnessfocus.bsky.social @womenwritersnet.bsky.social

Happy Pub Date to my new novel MORE TO LIFE. Retired teacher Colette goes kicking and screaming into assisted living, but there she finds friendship, adventure, and a possible romance with complications. @wetheseniors.bsky.social @womenwritersnet.bsky.social #writesky #books #amwriting #booksky

Ibert: A Giddy Girl

Hey, writers, here’s a tip I learned the hard way. Before titling a book, search how many other books already use that title. At least 5 books use my new novel’s title, and Amazon crisscrossed my book with a different author. It’s a mess! #amwring #writing #writesky #writingcommunity

What a day for a ride! @seniorfitnessfocus.bsky.social @urbancyclinginstitute.org @womenwritersnet.bsky.social @californialove1.bsky.social @writingcommunity.bsky.social

Newsom at the Climate Conference: savvy move! Trump has his head in the sand when it comes to climate change or is it his nose in the blueprints of his golden ballroom?

Talking about ELLEN OF ALLENSWORTH and reading from MORE TO LIFE at the Fresno Writers Summit. #writingcommunity @womenwritersnet.bsky.social @theseniorzone.bsky.social @booksky.bsky.social @thebookseller.com @bedazzledink.bsky.social @californiaparks.bsky.social

@cats.bsky.social First decoration of the season.

Talk of hatred toward people of color, LGBTQ folks, women, and migrants is not part of Christian values.

I got to do 13 miles of my favorite hike this weekend, the beautiful Rubicon Trail bordering Lake Tahoe. @Californiastateparks.bsky.social @seniorfitnessfocus.bsky.social

share.google/CgJlxYhOyaJH... I’ll be reading from my forthcoming novel MORE TO LIFE at the Fresno Writers Summit. Come join us.

About 100 folks showed up for Visalia’s Workers over Billionaires National Labor Day Protest, and to top it off, a wee protester was handing out Popsicles!

I’m protesting today before Trump issues an executive order banning it under the guise of national security, rather than creeping, alarming authoritarianism.

Coming soon, my novel MORE TO LIFE, about the challenges and humor of aging in a retirement community. If you liked MAN ON THE INSIDE and the THURSDAY MURDER CLUB books, you’ll probably get a kick out of my novel. #writingcommunity @seniorlivingfocus.bsy.social

Eeeeeeks! The Secretary of Health is an anti-vaxer. God save us from rising COVID cases because Trump isn’t going to do it. Nor Walgreens. Nor CVS.

This Labor Day, workers are rising together! While billionaires grow richer, working people struggle to make ends meet. We will not stand by as the wealth gap widens. Join us in protest, because Labor Day belongs to workers, not the billionaires who profit from our labor!

Science vs RFK Jr. I vote for science!

I can’t remember why I picked up my phone. Sad. Guess I’ll go swimming, which I should have done in the first place. @seniorfitnessfocus.bsky.social

Fun time at the Heart of California Book Faire meeting readers and other authors. #writingcommunity #writing #authors #California

I’m wondering why Trump hasn’t issued an executive order to take SOUTH PARK off the air. Trump is such a despicable guy that even Satan can’t stand to be around him, but Satan can’t leave the White House because Trump has committed so many crimes against humanity. Hahahahahahahaha!

Now folks can’t just say, “Sorry I’m late. My phone died so my alarm didn’t go off.” Instead it’s, “To be completely transparent, my phone died so my alarm didn’t go off.” Silly language. #writingcommunity

@gavinnewsom.bsky.social Dear Governor, please start posting your snarky stuff on BlueSky. It’s funny and demonstrates what an idiot Trump is. I hate X and refuse to go on it. We need your voice here.

Patricia Steele just gifted me her original artwork for the cover of my forthcoming novel MORE TO LIFE, about aging with gusto. #writingcommunity @aarpfoundation.bsky.social @theseniorzone.bsky.social @retiredams.bsky.social @seniorfitnessfocus.bsky.social

I’ll be there! Come join us!

Trump scoffing at the homeless in DC on the way to the golf course reminds me of an opening scene in Dickens’ TALE OF TWO CITIES when a royalist’s carriage ran over a poor street urchin and the rich guy threw a few coins out the window at the boy’s family. Then heads rolled. Literally. #books

I ran the 400, 800, and 1500 meter race at the National Senior Games in Des Moines. Here I am with all the woman age 70-74 in the 1500. Such fun! @seniorfitnessfocus.bsky.social @theseniorzone.bsky.social @retiredams.bsky.social @aarpfountain.bsky.social

Make America humane again. PLEASE.

Do you like to eat? Don’t deport people who grow your food. Would you like a house? Maybe people who build them shouldn’t be deported. How about dining out? I wouldn’t suggest deporting the cooks and the folks who clean up. Want to stay at a motel? Don’t deport the person who makes your bed.

One personality trait a POTUS and any elected representative should never have: cruel. Guess what.
