Ah. Yes, here I am in sunny Cancun, desperately trying to stop checking email. I suppose it takes at least a day for one to adjust to being on vacation. Kind of like jet lag. It has taken quite bit of craziness to get me to the point of wanting, craving, needing to go on this break.

It All Begins …
With a Cover Reveal. And then you wear your heart on your sleeve, hoping your words can somehow make a difference.

Fifty Four Christmases
Gosh, I can’t believe we’re here again. In the blink of an eye, we’re back in magical, hopeful times.
