If I ever get bold enough to write it, I definitely will!

Hahaha. I mean, it also has a more appropriate title, but this one gets the job done.
Oh, and this is the book…
I’m so doubtful about tackling one myself! It feels very overwhelming.
Same! Fleur Bradley has a how-to book for writing MG & YA mysteries coming out April 7 that I am excited to check out!
Love this!
Evening Class is *chef’s kiss*!!

There’s something very satisfying about the way a PB can be drafted from beginning to end fairly quickly. (Not saying they’re EASY, though!)
I keep telling myself that someday I will write a Maeve Binchy-esque MG story with multiple intersecting POVs.

That’s also a dream of mine! I’m currently stalled at 10K words in a story I’m calling “You’ve Got Mail with sausages.”
Tom joined in his friends' March for peace
They hoped that the wars would all cease
We want flowers, not guns
For our daughters and sons
And may worldwide kindness increase

Thank you! 🙏
The beach resort sounded just grand
The snorkeling, sun, and the sand
But roasting in the sun
Made Turkey Tom overdone
So he stayed in and rocked with the band

Inspired by the sports on TV
Tom wondered how hard luge could be
Swooshing down on the sled
Filled his bird heart with dread
He retired to his sofa with glee
