Healing Spirit – Leoclare ICQ by HARNISKA
My dad passed last week, after a brief illness. I’m heartbroken and still trying to process how sudden it all was. I’ll be taking a bit of a break. Hopefully back at it next week.
Until then…hug those you love.
It’s going to be a busy few weeks as my family and I deal with my dad’s illness. So postings will be brief.
I wanted to talk about cooking shortcuts, which somehow dovetailed nicely into things being so crazy that cooking becomes secondary.
Hard to believe he’s been here three years and is nine. He still acts like a teenager. He’s come so far from this day.
I wrote this on social media this week: “I feel like I have hammered and honed chapter two into a lovely opening to act 1.” No matter how I might gripe about the process, rewrites are actually very satisfying. Watching a story come sharply into focus is thrilling.
As I mentioned last week, Full Sail, the third book in the TJ Wilde Trilogy, needs some major rewrites. The problems were glaring by the time I hit chapters twelve and thirteen.
Sometimes the cover is so much better than the original. This will always be my favorite version of this song.
