Snow Again!
A beautiful snowfall happened in the night--it's especially lovely out here in the country, with all the trees draped in delicate lace. I'm as eager for spring as anybody, but I'm bound and determined to enjoy and appreciate what's happening Right Now.
Work on the book continues--I'm so near the end, and that's always a bittersweet feeling, wonderful, but also a parting of sorts, from these story people I have come to love. My characters always become intimate friends and somehow, when they go off into the world, like children starting college, it's never the same as when they lived at home, so to speak.
Alas, a new batch of characters are waiting in the works, and I know I'll fall madly in love with them, too. And there's the bright side--after every ending, there is a new beginning, in writing and in life. I'm a Square-one girl for sure; I love new beginnings--I've been reinventing myself on a regular basis all my life.
I hope you've all checked out the new web and Facebook pages. They present a much more accurate view of who I am now, today, and that matters to me. They've been working out some bugs with the website, and I hope you'll all be patient while they smooth down the rough edges.
That's the place to get information about this year's round of scholarships for women, and there will be lots of videos, photos and contests, too.
That's the news from my writing desk--time to turn on the happy lamp and head for Parable. :)
May God bless you, now and always.
