Niagara Falls Banner

Niagara Falls: a blast from this blog’s past. I really did not mean to delay this series so long. About the time I did pause it was when I started writing my manuscript. I fell down a writing rabbit hole and only crawled out recently. While my manuscript is with a beta reader I’m going

Holiday Road Trip Shenanigans

I’ve spent a lot of time in the car over the past few weeks on the way to visit family for the holidays. In addition to reading and napping, this is how I have entertained myself. There might also have been a couple of hours disagreeing with the hosts of the Life on Books podcast
