I have been quiet on the forum for a while as I have been working on various writing projects. Not only that it's been a rough few months! My five year old son broke his arm on the trampoline at the beginning of October which resulted in an overnight stay at the hospital and surgery. So scary and so very stressful!
A light in the darkness: my poetry book, Strange Beauty, was released at the end of October by Dead Man's Press Ink! A shout out to Dan Flore for encouraging me to submit to them.
Shortly after news of my first chapbook being published Sunday Mornings at the River contacted me about doing a second collection which I gladly accepted and will include a mix of poetry and essays. It is called Summer Storms and is to be released this July.
Besides all that and editing my chapbooks, I've also been working on my children's book, The Boogerman, and an illustrated book of two sentence horror stories which are TBA on release as I complete them. Then the craziness of the holidays happened and we all got the flu.
Here we are in the new year, still standing, and I am hopeful to return to my writing anew while also finishing up some of those other projects. So much to do!
Thank you for everyone who has supported me on my writing journey this far. I really am grateful for the kind words and helpful editing suggestions I have received over the years. It looks as though my hard work is beginning to pay off, and I can't wait to see where it will take me and what I will have to share soon!
