Congrats on your new releases, Alex!

[Christine]

I liked your article, Carole - and clapped!

[Amy]

I’ll have a few Medium articles coming up. I’d appreciate the same support if possible as I’d then get paid.

And well done Alex. I look forward to reading them.

[Amy]

Thanks Alex

Here's my first Medium story. You can write on any subject. The only thing the story has to do with writing is I wrote it!

Voted, exciting, you're in the lead.

Sorry I have been a little hit and miss on here lately. Been busy crafting for the holidays, prepping the Facebook release party and book signing next week for my new book, and starting a new side business with my husband. Plus all the other daily stuff. Lol congrats Alex on the releases, voted Carole, and clapped for both your wonderful articles Carole and Amy!

[Amy]

Thanks Erica. And that's an impressive to do list you have!

First, I would like to begin by saying congratulations to everyone who has something good happen.

I would like to share my wonderful news. I submitted a poem to Realistic Poetry International to included in their first ever poetry magazine.

My poem, "A Note To God" was selected for their extended magazine called "The Valiant."

The magazine is available for viewing on their website and can be purchased. The magazine came out two weeks ago.

Beautiful magazine.

I applauded your well-written article, Amy. I, too, live with constant pain from numerous health issues. I completely empathize with your situation. I hope for good days and do the most I can when I get them. Hugs

[Sam (Rescue Dog Mom, Writer, Hugger)]

Say, Carole, you're right. The cold weather only makes it worse. May I please send the plate back and make another selection from the menu? If only it were that easy for all of us. Hugs

[Amy]

Thank you Sam. That’s a lot of rubbish you’re dealing with Sam. Keep fighting xx oh and yes cold weather. That can take a running jump, my big toe keeps wandering around in its socket. It hurts *}%}]%#}

Will look at your other story when I’m at my laptop Carole.

[Amy]

Was intrigued, just read it Carole. Wonderful story. And one of many existing throughout that generation. Why did it have to be that way? So many wasted years.

[Amy]

Yeah. I have this because someone else wouldn’t be able to handle it and I can. Does that make sense?

[Sam (Rescue Dog Mom, Writer, Hugger)]

Thank you for your understanding, Amy and Carole! Stay warm and well! Hugs

Sam, yesterday I had reason to look up a writer, Frances Ridley Havergal. She was a poet and hymn writer, wrote loads, and "she led a quiet life, not enjoying consistent good health". There's more to it than that - might have gone blind, suffered typhoid, etc., etc., and died at age 42.

But like you, Sam, she did a lot of good in her life. That was back in Victorian times and yet she is still not forgotten. You never know how 'the lot you have on your plate' to use Carole's words, might be inspiring others. Centuries later!

Carole wrote: "That's lovely, Anna. I love the concentric ripples we all produce and intersect with each other.."

You said it, Carole! So right.

Anna, Thank you so very much for your uplifting and supportive message! You are so kind. That made my day. Hugs!

I'm saddened that my situation has reduced our dog rescue activity. However, I'm grateful to have been have to save has many as we have, and we're not done... at least I hope and pray we're not!

[Anna]

Sam wrote 'and we're not done... at least I hope and pray we're not! '

I hope and pray that too.

[Amy]

About time!

[Carmel]

Excellent, Alex!

Yippee, Alex! Congratulations! Hugs

[Anna]

Good to hear your news, Alex. Phew!

[Amy]

I've published another story on Medium. Above all else, believe - a story of disappointments, expectations and determination. True though. Please clap loudly at the end. Thank you.

**HAPPY DANCE** Catch that Chinchilla is now available on Amazon! My Facebook release party kicked off an hour ago. https://www.facebook.com/events/15065... Carole, Rocio, Becky, and Judy have been kind enough to volunteer as guest authors for the event. We are giving away books, Amazon gift cards and more. Please stop by a couple times a day on the 7th, 8th and 9th to see the latest games and giveaways!

[Erica]

Catch that Chinchilla just hit #1 New Release status on Amazon!!! **Eeekk** Cake and ice cream all around!

[Carole]

YAY!! You go, Girl!

[Erica]

By the way, Carole, your feature post went up at 11 central time. :) Rocio's will be going up in about 30 minutes. Judy and Becky's will be tomorrow. I lined this one up with a live event on Saturday so hopefully I will be able to bring a lot more people in on the last day. Your feature giveaways will stay open for a while, that way people can still enter throughout and even after the event. :)
