Good morning! Running slightly behind my self-imposed schedule this morning as I hit snooze quite a few times without even realizing it. But I feel super rested, so maybe that was a good thing?
On the homefront, we seem to be coming near the end of a weird few weeks of medical stuff (nothing serious, just one after the other), so hopefully we can all have a nice, restful weekend.
On the workfront, I have seventeen stories to share with you today (at the end of this post).
On the "editing for clients" front, I finished up one project over the weekend and started a first round for a client and a second round for another another client.
On the fiction front, I'm halfway through Cornell Dyer and the Whispering Wardrobe and working very sloooooooowly on the second book in the a new BryonySeries trilogy called Limbo: Call of the Siren.
Rebekah is formatting the first book The Phoenix. And I have the art for both. And I've actually outlined the third book in that series, House on top of the Hill.
So, along with some walks (and maybe a nap), I hope to make progress on all these projects this weekend.
Now back to the seventeen feature stories. Simply click on the link of the story that looks interesting to you. Happy scrolling!
But before the stories, I have a list of additional resources and information. Please check them out, too.
And have a great Friday!
