My, my. It has been six years since I last posted. Well, things have been quite busy here on the farm. Besides working full time, I have helped my husband with numerous projects on our ten acres. 

When winter weather kicked in, keeping us indoors most of the time, I focused on other interests in addition to writing. 

Writing in and of itself is time consuming, as my author friends can attest. Over the years, I managed to complete two manuscripts. I spent time researching and editing, and received lots of help from my critique partners. 

I retired a year ago. Let me tell you, it is wonderful! I spent the past 12 months tying up loose ends, catching up on my scrapbooking and genealogy research, and improving our home as I mentioned earlier. Writing sort of took a back seat, but not in my heart. 

I have finally come to the point where I need to pursue publication. I believe my stories will move others as they have me, but I can't share them unless they are published. Now for the fun part: how to do it. It has taken some research and lots of prayer to arrive at a decision. In my next post six years from now...

Just kidding. Hopefully in a week I will have an update. Until then, enjoy this early winter weather, stay safe, and keep looking up for answers.
