Happy Insecure Writer’s Support Group day! The first one in the first month of the brand-new year, which even sounds hopeful and exciting.

I’m sorry for the lack of posting the last two weeks. Not even an otter meme can save me. Partly I’ve been avoiding the Internet because every time I turn it on some new horror leaps out, like Pennywise on speed. “Hurricane? LOL” says Mother Nature. “Try FOUR hurricanes, back to back. Oh, and two deadly earthquakes in two weeks. Haha, maybe I’ll throw in a plague of locusts and some bloody acid rain, for fun.” Thanks, Ma. Also, the…

First of all: Hello to Georgianna (what a cool name.) I was afraid it might be creepy to use your personal email address, and my contact page doesn’t show comments so I’m saying thank you on here in hopes that you see it 🙂 Second, Hi to Canada!…
