Delta Pearl Delay

Happy weekend, my chuckaboos!  You must be tired of hearing me complain — I’ve had “the everything flu” for two weeks.  I’m finally doing better, although sinus and tummy issues are still trying to hang on.  Anyhow, after two weeks of it, I’m purely exhausted and couldn’t get a chapter of  The Delta Pearl ready.

To keep you entertained and in a riverboat mindset, Dan Antion has a wonderful, image filled post about his visit to the Connecticut River Museum, in Essex, CT.  If you love the setting of The Delta Pearl I’m sure you will enjoy Dan’s post.

Meanwhile, John W. Howell got me interested in the Rave Reviews Book Club (RRBC).  I’m starting out small (and spending the scant amount of energy I have as I shake off this horrible bug) getting a limited profile together for the #RRBC.

Oh, and look what I just found on my Amazon page! I realize that #1 status is updated hourly, and will probably vanish momentarily… but still.  Woot!  “Speak Flapper” got a #1, however short-lived it may be.

[image error]“Speak Flapper” was #1 in Amazon’s Words & Language Reference category!

If you’d like to catch up on, or refresh your memory, here are recent links to The Delta Pearl. The Delta Pearl 19 — Flirt.   The Delta Pearl 18 — Bump.   The Delta pearl 17 –Jump. 

 I’ll be back next weekend with a new chapter.  Hugs!
