My Math was a Little Off

The perils of shipping with a one person "business".

Taking a Cue from Grandma

Hubby and I have been gardening, in one form or another, for the last 32 years or so. We started with a very tiny patch in our second-to-last apartment and just continued with it for the most part. We did let it go for a few years but took it up again with zest and… Continue reading Taking a Cue from Grandma

Getting Creepy Out Here

I came into the stats on the site this morning to see my small number which is no surprise. What was a bit surprising was no one…at all…read my post yesterday. Like…no one. That is very weird. No matter. I went to my stats. I looked down the page and my eye caught on ‘downloaded… Continue reading Getting Creepy Out Here

No Solicitors

It's Political Season in New London! Candidates are going door-to-door to get your vote. I have a bit of advice for them.Dear Candidate, before you knock read the sign. Before you leave the house....look in a mirror.

The Final Tally

I tried and tried and tried and tried to pay them the second half of the money due and….no go. Nada. Which is… Continue reading The Final Tally

Dancin’ with the Devil

Man, I hate Amazon. Deep down in my heart I truly do. But, it’s 2025 and we’re all stuck with that bald bastard. I can BUY stuff elsewhere and I often do but I’m still a Prime Member (you may be too). If you’re an author you must be on Amazon. Because it’s THAT huge.… Continue reading Dancin’ with the Devil

Calling All Gentlemen

We’re about halfway through our little marketing campaign on Book Cave, FB/Instagram and Amazon. Not gonna lie here….we haven’t made a single Kindle sale. Not one. I am not surprised but I am a bit deflated. I haven’t checked the other retailers, I suppose I could be surprised over there. Probably not as surprised as… Continue reading Calling All Gentlemen

Last Call for Hot Butter w/ a Side of ChatGPT

Yeah, I got another one. Sigh. It’s from a different person and I’m absolutely positive about that for one reason; she went away. Poof. Bye. This is a slightly different type of Praise & Prey but my solution will so totally awesomely work for you here. (Well, if the scammer is intelligent anyway.) Here we… Continue reading Last Call for Hot Butter w/ a Side of ChatGPT
