It has been quite a summer, and now we’re well into fall, and here I am, finally ready to start posting again.
The big event was our move to North Carolina which went well, but it was strenuous and full of letting go, as we did a major downsize. And there was sadness too as we had to say goodbye to our darling dog, Shiba, who made her own move to the ever-after, and could not come with us.
Now that we’re here, we’ve been busy adjusting as we make the shift from being Northerners to learning how to be Southerners. We are really happy to be here in North Carolina. The people are friendly, the weather is sweet, and there are so many trees! We are still enjoying a colorful fall here, even though Wisconsin has already started the winter thing.
The best news though is that I’ve still been able to keep on writing all through it all. I’m now well into the second draft of my current project—Out of the Bottle, a story about a genie who wants to be free. I hope everyone else has had an exciting summer too.
