BREAKING: The House passed the so-called SAVE America Act which threatens to upend our freedom to vote.

The bill could disenfranchise millions of eligible voters by requiring documents like passports or birth certificates to register to vote and forcing voter roll purges. The Senate must reject it.

Finished tonight's writing and wondering if two character have ever LITERALLY talked this much over tea in one of my drafts??? I've learned to just let myself write these scenes like this, then go back and rebuild them in a more interesting milieu. I'm only allowed ONE "talk over tea" per book 😆

Love this song from John Denver who is sorely missed! I always felt that John Denver was way ahead of us all. He was environmentally friendly and was aware of how important it is to take care of planet earth!
