Day 6 of sharing with your wonderful people!
Today is one of those days where it's hard to get started. My brain feels like it has a fog clouding it, and words are a challenge to use correctly. Still, the stories won't write themselves. And once I get started they seem flow much easier. It doesn't help with the energy department though. I … Continue reading Day 6 of sharing with your wonderful people!

Day three of my 250 words of inspiration! #SupportIndieAuthors
I was thinking about what inspires me today. It's sort of been floating in the background all day, a buzz that wouldn't leave me alone.
