Thorns of the Rose surpassed the 40 thousand word mark today, and it's not even halfway done yet. I got over 3,000 words in today and finished Chapter 8.

The niece of a friend of mine is now reading "Honestly"... And enjoying it! Just hearing about it made my day... It makes all of the cussing, the writer's block, the rewrites and so much more WORTH EVERY SECOND OF IT.

BEST Christmas present EVER!!!! #romancelandia #Booksky💙📚 #novascotiaauthor

I'm arguing with a manuscript today, even if it's only edits and revisions. I also have a ton of graphics to do for my upcoming holiday takeover bash in my Facebonkers reader's group. #authorlife #NovaScotiaAuthor #writing #amwritingromance #romanceauthor

Oh man, YayImages has so many human drawn and designed stock goodies for the holidays. How am I going to narrow it down to under my daily limit?

*Thank heavens you can favorite all you decide to download later!* #graphicsdesign #stockphotos #authorlife #NovaScotiaAuthor #bookpromos #holidaypromos

Nothing like sitting down to have a coffee and extract some goodies from zipped folders, then have your clingy Maine Coon cross climb up on your shoulder, demanding snuggles. #CatsofBluesky #authorlife #NovaScotiaAuthor #romanceauthor

Cutest blep EVER!! I love my baby Marnie. #catsofBluesky #catsofCanada #authorlife #CatsofNovaScotia #NovaScotiaAuthor #romanceauthor #catperson #catpics

I hope my crazy cat does NOT do this tomorrow if I'm trying to write. I think she was telling me something, like how much she "LIKED" the writing. #spoiledcat #authorlife

Good grief. I was going to put ONE MORE LINE in Thorns of the Rose to give myself something to build on in the next scene for later this week (tomorrow) and wound up adding a lot more. YEAH BABY!! #romancelandia #NovaScotiaAuthor #lovestory #NovaScotiastories #comingsoon #WIP
