My Goings On in June: Summer is here and I’m taking full advantage! My family spent the last two weeks in June in Colorado, hiking, sightseeing, wild animal watching, gold panning, hummingbird feeding, wildflower picking, ropes course climbing, go-karting – and just generally having tons of fun!!  (Check out the picture of us up on Mt.

My Goings On in April: I  posted a tongue-in-cheek April Fools’ post all about why I was planning to ban books in my household and give away all of my children’s books. Some of you thought I had truly gone insane! (I actually added April Fools’ to the title on April 2nd so that people wouldn’t be too confused.)

November Wrap-Up and Best of the Bunch

November Wrap-Up and Best of the Bunch

My Goings On in November: This was a very light month for me on the blog, mostly because … I won NaNoWriMo!!!  (Meaning, I wrote the 50,000 required words to win – I haven’t actually finished my book, but I am darn proud of my progress, especially since it was looking pretty bleak there for a little while.) This was a really tough goal for me, so I’m thrilled! I did a first edit of L.A Starkey’s upcoming […]
