Happy Sunday!
Oops! I thought this newsletter was sent out on Wednesday like it was supposed to, but it turns out it was stuck in my drafts. Apologies for sending this out a bit late, but I do have some great books to share with you.
Since I'm adding in an apology, I wanted to add in a question:
Did you watch Eurovision? If so, which song was your favorite? Reply and let me know. I liked the songs from Finland, Estonia, Austria, and Moldova the best.
Here’s a photo from this month. My family and I went to a local comic book store for Free Comic Book Day, and besides the free comics we came home with two new stuffed toys. Pictured with Hamphrey is Steve from Minecraft that my daughter chose and not pictured is the Minecraft creeper my son chose. Both of my kids are so into Minecraft lately, with my daughter preferring the original version, and my son enjoying Minecraft Dungeons. We play both games as a family, which has been so much fun.
I'm still diligently working on editing my novel, plus a new short story and poetry book revisions. There's a lot happening writing-wise and I'm hoping to have something big to share with you soon.
Poetry Corner:
Over on Instagram I share poems from my books, and this one is from Autumn Reveries:
ominous red skies
stranger beckoning from shadows
swears he's found safety
Autumn Reveries is a book of 31 Halloween haiku, but if you're into spooky vibes, it's good for any time of year. Get your copy here for 99c.

Happy Wednesday! When I'm writing, everything's a mess. Binders on the floor, papers dragged out of who knows where and spread out for reference, not to mention the fact that dishes pile up for a bit longer than I'd like. The trade off is that I'm in the zone and productive, but dang, sometimes the messiness can really get to me (or my husband, who is a total neat freak). PS: this photo only shows one binder, and isn't an accurate representation of my writing mess! (I do love those YouTube...
Happy Wednesday! It was our dog Hamphrey's birthday over the weekend, so we took him to the park and to Petsmart to pick out some special treats. Here he is resting after a lap around the pond: Do you celebrate pet birthdays? I don't go all out (we've never thrown a party for him), but I like to do a little something to acknowledge that my dog is getting older. He's 9 this year, and it's wild to think we've almost spent a decade together! I miss the puppy years when he would dart around the...
