Can't believe it's March already!

I can't believe that it's already March. Wherever does the time go? In two weeks I'll be commemorating the year anniversary of my dear mother's passing. How I miss that feisty, little old lady, but I know she's more than likely livening things up in Heaven and that all her relatives and friends who have gone before her have welcomed her with loving arms.

Meanwhile, I've been keeping busy reading and working on many reviews. I just received several wonderful children's books to review from the New York Journal of Books and I'm eager to delve into them. As for my own writing... I've just joined a wonderful critique group with three other Guardian Angel Publishing authors and thoroughly enjoying reading their submissions and having them give me constructive and much welcomed advice about my work. We make a wonderful team. Anyway, I think I have the first two chapters of "Tommy's Angel" polished and about ready to get on to the rest of the story.

Still getting some great feedback about "Tiny Angel" and the last time I checked Amazon.com, they only had one copy left in stock, so I'm thrilled about that.

As I sit here at my home office, glancing out the window at the still-brown grass and see by the thermometer the still-chilly temperatures, I anxiously await the spring and warmer weather. Usually by this time of year, my central NC area is warming up, but one can only hope now. I guess Mother Nature is confused as is evidenced by what is happening all over the world, and I hope she gets back to where she's supposed to be.

Time to quit my musings and get back to work, so I wish you all a wonderful day and lots of happiness.

  1. Anniversaries of losing a loved one, especially a mother, are tough, but it's good to hold on to special, sweet memories to ease the pain. I'm glad your writing and "Tiny Angel" are doing well!

    Hopefully spring will arrive here in North Carolina before long and be very welcome!
