Still Plugging Away

Planned Reward
I’m such a dork. My reward for either finishing this next book fast or selling the first one is this. It comes out in June and I’m excited about it.

Emotional Glimpses-Sharing Today
Quite the emotional weekend for me. First up, and don’t laugh, my daughter got her driver’s license. We showed up at the DMV around 6:30 and stood in freezing drizzle in line forever for that test. I made her laugh through most of it. Poor thing was sooo nervous. But I do think a driver’s test…
