My Annual NYE Post
As much lip service as I give Halloween and St. Patrick’s Day, my true favorite holiday is New Year’s Day. Actually, New Year’s Eve is way more fun, but to me the two days are pretty much one extended holiday. I love looking back at my accomplishments of the previous year and setting up my […]

On the writing front, I’ve mostly just been in the “do the daily minimum” / survival mode. […]
