Happy New Year!

    A-a-and my blog vacation's over! I want to wish you all a very Happy New Year! I have a few announcements and random notes.

   First off, if you didn't notice it already, I've got a few new pages up there just below the header. Just pointing it out. ;)

    Secondly, I am going to attempt to put up more snippets and the like from my stories this coming year. I can't promise anything, but I mi-i-i-ight even publish my first book in 2021! Obviously, my little flickering hope to finish and publish Millie's Miracle by this last Christmas got extinguished, but now I'm onto a goal to get it done by next Christmas. Plenty of time, so if I still don't get it done next year, any excuses I might give will be pitifully irrelevant. And you can hold me to this if you want. ;)

   Third, I want to point out a new work-in-progress! Yes, I know; I shouldn't keep abandoning my "old" works for any new idea that pops into my brain. But just to let you know, that's precisely what I do. Not the abandoning part, though . . . I mean, I still have my other stories around. They're just, uh, in storage. Now that I've pled my defense, I will move onto the story! It's called Just Another Autumn. I'm really enjoying this story. It's fun, just a bit dramatic, has Christian values, and maybe has a good dash of sarcasm-seasoning thrown in. ;) I kind of write the type of stuff I like to read, so this is very fun. Though I must admit that I'm not very kind to my characters. Why? Oh, because it's so much more enjoyable to throw them headlong into a dramatic and/or distressing situation so that they will have a chance to grow/learn/maybe-have-a-life-changing-experience. This time, in this story, it has to do with a concussion and a chance meeting. I'm not going to give away any more (yet). Go on over to my works-in-progress page to see the collage I made for it!

   And one more little note. I put up a few more things on my "Behind the Blogger" page. :)

   Happy New Year and God Bless!
