Books Read in July

Image
  The month of July was a very busy one for me. But even before the month started, I knew it would be a difficult month to get through, because July 24 would mark one year since my older brother, Troy, passed away. I am still very grieved that he is gone.   Even so, I had a ton of things keeping me busy that made it difficult for me to dwell on my sadness. Work for Dreamweaver Press is going strong and I have a lot of submissions to get through. We also released another book this month: the fantasy novel  Insights into the Next Realm: Shadows from the Darkness  by Erika Ravnsborg.

For this month in particular, there are graduations and Father’s Day.   And for the first time in a long time, we in the Wilson household got to experience both of those events this month. My youngest, Jax, graduated and reached the milestone of moving on to higher education.

We are very proud of Jax and excited for what his future holds.   My husband had a nice Father’s Day this year. Our oldest and his partner joined us for dinner, and my husband enjoyed receiving his gifts. We also had lots of laughs while watching the movie Kung Fu Hustle .   As for me, the writing continued this m...

Books Read in May

  Some good things happened for me this month. I said goodbye to using the eye drops three times a day, Every Single Day, because I finished using them. My doctor FINALLY figured out what kind of medication I should take that helps with the daily headaches (as well as, surprisingly, my daily episode of falling asleep in midday!), and I have been enjoying some headache-free days. Well, the physical kind, anyway; there were quite a few things that happened this month that really got my blood boiling or made me want to scream. Some of those things made me feel like I was being pulled in different directions! I just hope ALL of that is over with and all of us can finally move forward with our lives and our careers.   I had a really nice Mother’s Day this month. The funny thing is that both of my kids got me the same thing, and that put me in the awkward position of having to choose which one to keep. I also had my birthday this month, but because it was on a weekday, I told ...
