Finding time to write. It’s something I’ve written about quite a bit on this blog, and I even used time management for writers as the topic of our first podcast. But still, as we enter the final month of 2016, I believe there is more to be said on the topic. I’ve always said that […]
Thoughts from my first author fair
Well, happy Monday everybody. I know people think I’m crazy when I say this, but Monday is still my favorite day of the week. I like that feeling of getting a fresh start every seven days. But enough about that. I wanted to talk about this weekend. This weekend I was one of the authors […]
