When I last made a blog entry, I said my life had settled down a bit. As it turned out, December proved to be anything and everything ... EXCEPT a settled month. (We lost our grandson just before Christmas.) Everett was only with us for 11 weeks, but we all grew to love him dearly.

It's now January. A new month. The start of a new year. A time for New Year's Resolutions.

My primary resolution is to publish at least one of my books. So come back in late January or early February. 

Also, if you haven't already done so, visit my "Freebies" page, where you will find some examples of my work, including a short story set in the latter days of the American Civil War. And please feel free to click on the envelope at the top of the page and send me a short note of encouragement or criticism. ... constructive criticism is preferred, but all criticism will be taken into consideration..
