Perfect conditions as I set out for a longer paddle than I’ve typically been getting in recently. Managed a steady 13+ miles (with two dolphin breaks). Outstanding morning!

Finished this morning’s 3-mile run in time to greet the sunrise at Ballard Park 😊

Tough life for Lolie Grace…

Good workout done! 4x Bench Press Flutter kicks Dumbbell rows Dumbbell thrusters 3x Lat Pulldowns V-front raises Sumo deadlifts Side bends 3x Lat Pullovers Side Lateral Raises 3x Low back extensions Single-leg balance roundabouts w/ ball 3x Rope Pulldown Crunch Dynamic Russian Twists w/ ball

A beautiful start to my day. A little over 9 miles on the water and a bunch of dolphins feeding in the shallows between Eau Gallie and Melbourne causeways.

Well, three (enthusiastic and engaged) attendees at my author talk yesterday. A little disappointed at the turnout, but their excitement and questions helped mitigate that a bit. Still, great practice! #5amwritersclub

Today…

While working on tomorrow’s author presentation, I pulled out a few of my creations, cartoons, and nonfiction articles to share. #5amwritersclub #indieauthors

This Saturday…

Worked on my author presentation for Saturday. Putting together a PowerPoint show on “the personal” in my writing. Still more work to do…

An outdoor, in-person event today in Cocoa Village, Florida. It’s a small table challenge—displaying 8 books and marketing signage on a 4-foot table 😮 #5amwritersclub #indieauthors #FloridaWriters #FloridaAuthors #spacecoast #CocoaVillage

Always wonderful to wake up to a book sale. Another copy of my latest—RESONANCE—is now in someone’s hands 😊 📖 #5amwritersclub #indieauthor

Hamish and some books I wrote 😻

Beautiful morning to get in 10 miles and change. My water time has been a bit spotty lately, so I cherish every chance I get.

😊 This author sold 30 books today. My first two—WENDALL’S LULLABY and DELPHYS RISING—are still my biggest sellers 😮 #5amwritersclub #indieauthors #WritingCommunity
