Before it comes to that, however, I have an 'arts' studio where I wander from post to post, so I will race over to a painting I'm working on and put some strokes into that, and let my subconscious work awhile.

Kenna never dreamed when she laid her uncle to rest in a cemetery of Scottish ancestors, she would find herself on a quest to befriend Scotland's coronation stone, The Stone of Destiny. Leaving her old life in the dust, she traced the advent of ancestors back to Scotland--encountering the adventure and terrors--of her life. Coming soon!!!(less)
