Do you NaNoWriMo? November brings lots of excitement to the year. Arriving on the sugar high of Halloween, it’s true pumpkin spice season. The fall colors are almost spent and the gardens are brown and withered. My little sailboat, forlorn and abandoned since the first chill in the air a few weeks ago, awaits its…
I gobbled up three books recently—while reading the Bridgerton collection, I might add—and I have to recommend them all with many, many stars. One is set during the Cold War.

I just read Piper Huguley’s…
I had the option of talking about my writing style and habits with Betty—but Donna insisted she wanted to be the star of this blogpost. Donna is a bit headstrong and ambitious so I moved over so she could answer Betty’s questions.
