Paddling My Way to a New Year
We spent New Year’s Day kayaking on the Econofina River in north Florida. The day was foggy, and we got lost in the reeds, but we returned home refreshed and ready to begin
2019. Nature restores me and gives me hope.
While I’m enjoying kayaking, yoga, golf, and volunteering, my writing life appears to be on hiatus. It didn’t ask me permission because the writing muse can be fickle and sporadic. Instead of crying, I’m reading–I’m making a dent in the TBR pile on my nightstand and on my Kindle–I still read from both as the spirit moves me or as my circumstances permit.
I hope 2019 has begun in a positive way for you, and I hope you’re reading as well. When I do get back in the writing saddle, it will be to finish Love on Track (Rivals in Love Book 3) and Four Women and a Man (women’s fiction). If you haven’t read the first book in my Rivals series or Behind the Love series, here’s your chance to start for free this week. One series is sweet, the other is steamy, so hopefully there’s something for all!
Happy New Year to you all. And please leave a comment. I love to hear from
you.

Hi,
Thanks for this lovely note.
Of course I’m reading – Just finished the marvelous A Gentleman in Moscow and am now reading Buried Beneath the Baobab Tree. Both unputdownable and both beautifully written.
My muse has deserted me. I do have a small idea that I am mulling about and hope to get started on soon.
Take care and all the best for 2019.

I believe I read the Baobab Tree, and I agree. I’ll have to check out the Gentleman in Moscow. I’m going to sit with one of my unfinished manuscripts this afternoon and see what happens. My best to you.
