Catchy name. Makes me wonder how you envision your associated logo?

if only I were a poet!

Revenge is a dish best served up cold. I name my nasty characters after those who have harmed my real world people.

Truer words for this time in history were never sung. Her voice and words rip my heart.

Our two dogs have two identical toys but they only fight over one of them. If I remove the coveted toy, neither dog even looks at the remaining toy.

Tis the season to be kind and your generosity, from your heart as it is, is inspiring. I too would do that, but as my sales are slim to one, it ain't gonna have an impact. Good onya!

I feel your pain. It's so disheartening. I recently entertained the idea of giving up on writing fiction. For 30 years, I was a successful freelance/ghostwriter, and then my brain convinced me to write a novel, which was a blast, but climbing the marketing hill slayed my love of writing. 1/2

Still laughing over " See you in the forest"

Good morning, and thank you for the perspective reset on this dark and chilly Monday morning.

"Who you lookin' at?"
