Two more days of work at the botanical garden and next week I am a free woman. Come play with me.
I am proofing my book. Outskirts Press has sent me a copy for final review. Soon there will be a real book in my hands and maybe in yours. Sign up for book updates on my website and you may win a free copy.
My ego is pumping, I can google myself now! I put in my name and there I am. How fun is that? I keep going back to try it again and again.
Widow Lesson Learned: It is fun to google yourself! But too much googling can be a bad thing! Keeps you from doing what needs to be done.
