Celebrate the Small Things-August 21, 2015
It's Friday! Let's Celebrate the Small Things with Lexa Cain. Tonja and I are her co-hosts.
We took the kids to the beach last weekend. Well, it's the closest thing to a beach that you can find in Iowa anyway. The kids went swimming and attempted to make sand castles. They certainly enjoyed themselves.
My kids go back to school next week. I took them to Meet Your Teacher Night

WEP August Challenge: Spectacular Settings
Here's my entry in the August 2015 WEP Flash Fiction Challenge. It's all about Spectacular Settings!
For the first part of this challenge, I'd like to share an excerpt from Neil Gaiman's novel Neverwhere.
"It was a city in which the very old and the awkwardly new jostled each other, not uncomfortably, but without respect; a city of shops and offices and restaurants and homes, of parks

Get a Copy of A Silent Soliloquy for Free!
I'd like to start by thanking everyone who has purchased a copy of my novella A Silent Soliloquy, read it, reviewed it, or in any way helped to promote it. You've all been amazing! Anyone who downloaded a copy of Cosmic Seasoning is also totally amazeballs. Seriously. Thank you!
This whole self-promotion thing is tricky. I'm admittedly not the best at it. The more I promote my work

I have a lot of back to school stuff going on in the coming week. I need to finish shopping for school supplies tonight, on top of grocery shopping, with both kids in tow while hubby's at work, so wish me luck on that one. It might not be an easy task, but I've always enjoyed shopping for

It's been a somewhat unpleasant week overall, but I'm celebrating the fact that it's getting better. I know this is somewhat gross, but I've always had a problem with ear wax building up in my ears. I inherited the problem from my dad. It got so bad that I completely lost my ability to hear out

It's Friday! Let's Celebrate the Small Things with Lexa Cain! Tonja and I are her co-hosts.
This has been a pretty good week. The boys had a pizza party at the library to celebrate the end of the summer reading program. They ate pizza (obviously) and cookies, watched a movie, and came home with candy bars. As you can probably imagine, they were quite happy.

Cosmic Seasoning Update
I promised to keep all of you updated about the progress of my upcoming short story collection Cosmic Seasoning. I designed a cover for it using Canva, and I think it turned out well enough considering my complete lack of artistic talent.
Here it is.
Some of the stories in this collection are humorous, some serious, and I hope people will enjoy them.
There will be ten stories in

The kids enjoyed being in the parade last weekend. They'd be in a parade every weekend if it were possible. I got a sunburn that same day, but it was a minor one, and it didn't bother me by the following day, so I'll celebrate that.
Writing has been going reasonably well. I've also been
