Good morning!
I have sixteen feature stories to share with you this morning - with another sixteen that haven't posted to The Herald-News website yet, so watch for them over the weekend.
Yesterday, I took a big step for me and a small step for herd immunity. It was a big step for me because when you have a weird medical history, you weigh the pros and cons differently than most people.
I'm happy to say my side effects at this point are completely average, and I'm super happy about that. This means I have a sore arm, am really tired (a series of naps is calling my name today), a bit achey, and I have a headache.
The second shot is scheduled for July 1. So even if side effects are severe or off the charts, I'll still be fully vaccinated on my birthday. A new full life on the day I started a new full life? I'll take it!
Here's a quick summary of where I'm at, fiction-wise.
The next book in The Adventures of Cornell Dyer chapter book series: Cornell Dyer and the Whispering Wardrobe should be available for purchase this weekend at the earliest and beginning of next week at the latest.
I'm excited start the next book in the series: Cornell Dyer and the Calcium-Deficient Bones, maybe even this weekend, if Timothy and I feel up to it.
The first book in the new BryonySeries Limbo trilogy The Phoenix is now available in the BryonySeries store.
I'm hoping to get some work done on the second book of the Limbo trilogy - Call of the Siren - but because of the abundance of new characters and situations, I am pretty much starting from scratch, so progress is still very, very slow. But I'm hoping to peck at it a bit, if my energy allows it.
I scratched the surface of a new series in the BryonySeries this past weekend. It's an idea Sarah suggested to me over a decade ago. It's aimed at tween girls, so if you have a tween, are a tween, or will have a tween someday, this might interest you.
And if you missed it, I had a really nice review on Bryony recently and also one on Visage. Both are from the same reader, which is now also reading Staked!
Now back to the sixteen 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 -
Finally, if you'd like to find more kindness in your life, consider this book.
And have a great Friday!
