It was a dark and stormy day...

I mean WOW it was so dark a few hours ago you would have thought the sun had long set. But we need this rain and I had things to do here, so...let it rain.

A couple of updates:  There's going to be a large-print edition of Curves for Days! I'm really tickled about this, as someone who has had glasses since 3rd grade (and who probably needed them well before that). My vision has NOT gotten any better over the years, and sometimes when I've really overdone the screen time, a large print book feels like a blessed relief (Something I don't have to strain to see! Yay!).

Also, it's possible that July and Joe's story--book 2 in the Galway series--is going to get a different title. And we're still working on the cover, so that release date has been pushed back to August (alas!) (At least my anticipation should be at a fever pitch by then.).

In other news, I'm going to try NaNoWriMo this year! I've considered it in past years, and half-heartedly attempted it on my own a few years ago, but this year I'm going to try to use the incentive and excitement around it to make significant progress on Sonya's story. If you haven't heard of NaNoWriMo (National Novel Writing Month), you can learn all about it here. Maybe you'll find it so exciting you'll decide to join me! 

Meanwhile, I'm trying to stay aware of the humanitarian crisis unfolding in Gaza. I found this site with a list of ways we can help the people there. And of course at home we can help by speaking out against hateful rhetoric of all kinds, including and especially anti-Muslim or anti-Jewish speech whenever we hear it.
