Happy Valentine’s Day. Took the photo of them at the Houston Zoo.
Hope you are having a swell day! I had to go to the grocery store for a prescription and it was filled with people even that early, shopping for flowers and Valentine’s treats. Off to write! I’m at the halfway point on Bear in Pursuit.

Being kind to each other should not be a one-day-a-year event. And it should be a mutual thing–not that only one partner is supposed to show his or her love, but both do.
I have zero energy this morning. I’m drinking water and maybe that will perk me up. The cold, surprisingly, hasn’t been as bad as previous ones, where I would cough nonstop for 3 months at a time. I no longer have a sore throat, but still even though I tried to sleep more, I have no energy.
I’m off to print out my Stolen Highland Dreams, turn my taxes over to the accountant, ship more books, and then crash.
Hope your Valentine’s Day is extra special!

From all my book characters and me to you, have a great one!
We’re supposed to have rain in the morning, but clearing for when I pick up my granddaughter, which I hope it does and I’ll walk baby to pick her up. Hope you have a lovely day!!!
Well, we had a fun evening during the Super Bowl! So didn’t get as much done as I wanted yesterday. I did finish edits on Emerald, but now I have to proof it again. But I’m still editing what I have on A Wolf’s Second Chance and of course I’m getting close to the end and that means not sleeping because I keep thinking about it. 🙂
I really need to get cracking on the mss today. Took care of baby for about 4 hours yesterday and after he went home, I was just doing edits, so didn’t add a whole lot to the mss. Two-hundred-sixty-eight words. Far short of the 6,000 I needed. lol I will have to reset my word count timing because not catching up.
I had to start over on reading the story after working on edits on two other books. I’ll get Emerald Isle of Mist’s beta read today probably from the last reader and I can finish proofing and get that up for preorders on all the sites. Yay!
Off to work on A Wolf’s Second Chance. My editor is already putting title names out for readers to vote on. How does that work when the editor and readers haven’t read the book?
My sweet little granddaughter brought me a chocolate bear holding a heart for Valentine’s and I told her sharing was–
And she responded with… “caring!”
And so that’s what I did. After lunch, we shared just a piece of it, and next week we will have some more. She had wanted the whole heart. She would have been on a sugar high. No way. lol
So we got our hugs in, though we do all the time anyway. I hugged her for giving me the Valentine’s chocolate and she gave me a hug for sharing it with her.
Everyone needs hugs.
Years ago, we had a friend who said that his parents were both alcoholics, and so was he. He said the best memories he had was getting a hug from an aunt, because there was no love in his family. His father was extremely abusive.
My dad had horrible parents too–and his favorite memory was of sleeping with his grandmother and cousin in her big bed in winter in an old farmhouse where the two little boys had been dumped. He was mostly in orphanages with his sister, three years older than him, and they couldn’t even touch each other through the fence or they would be whipped. So he remembered how cuddling with his grandmother was one of his greatest joys. My dad was a great hugger.
So even if you don’t have anything else to give, offer a smile and a hug. Show someone you really do care. Share the love.
And speaking of which–distance, wear a mask, and when we can finally get one, vaccinate so sharing won’t mean giving someone a deadly virus!
And Happy Valentine’s Day the whole wide world ’round! Stay safe!
I write about love, about spreading the love day by day, and I TOTALLY forgot about it!
That’s because I’m so excited to be wrapping up the novella! Yeah!!! Okay, so go out and share some love even if you don’t have a sweetheart because everyone can use a little love!
Happy Valentine’s Day!!!
I’m so excited! I feel like I’m on a chocolate high! Back to the novella!
Baby’s here, so that means I’m super busy. Trying to work on taxes. I’d rather be writing!! That’s why I missed posting a blog yesterday, trying to get word count and work on the taxes. I did manage to get 21,000, so 59,000 to go! 🙂 <3
