Greetings to all my X-friends (but never ex-friends). Long time, no tweet! Any of you come back like I did just to check if you were hacked on FB or Insta? haha. #instagramdown #facebookdown #WritingCommunity
My eight year old just asked me if Bingo is the name of the farmer or the dog and now I am questioning everything I thought I knew about life.

We were rewatching The Chosen as a family and had to pause it while someone went to go get something.
Suddenly my 10yo asks, "Did I just find Cookie Monster?"

I haven't been posting on here much because I'm busy trying to get my new website up and prep my reader magnets to launch with the new website.
Who here does reader magnets? What do you use for yours?

203 balloons and 13.5 hours later, @HullaballoonArt has amazed me again.
#MerryChristmas everyone! May your lives be as full of joy and peace as my kitchen is of balloons.

I'm working with a professional designer for my cover, finally getting excited that we've honed in on a main design, so I threw a couple color/typography variations out on a FB group for opinions and got some feedback.
Let's just say my excitement is gone and my anxiety is high.
I got a new laptop. It's exciting I have a functional w and 2 key now, but I loathe the dozens of tiny yet annoying changes I have to learn/correct. Power button and charging port in new spots. Forced Windows 11 upgrade. New default browser. Different keyboard/trackpad alignment.
