Sunday Post and Sunday Salon: Rain and Sunflowers

Here we are in August already. It’s the last real month of summer and the beginning of Fall, in my opinion. It’s been a summer that has been rainy at times and sunny at times, and so has life. We lost a family member unexpectedly and remembered that life is so, so short and fleeting.…

Book Review: A Family Affair by Jodi Taylor

My favorite author is back with the second book in her Smallhope and Pennyroyal series, which is in the Chronicles of St. Mary’s world. See my review below. Book Review Smallhope and Pennyroyal are back, and the action starts immediately. The title, A Family Affair, is very appropriate, as they are thrown by news relating…

    1. I think it’s fun especially when you have stuff to write. I have been stuck lately, no inspiration whatsoever, but I agree with you, blogging can be fun.

    1. I finally found it. I’m 50,906. Yikes! I guess I don’t care. Kudos to you! Amazon Vine–they have to invite you. I did a lot of reviews years ago and got an email out of the blue from them with the invitation. It is a good program. I’m not sure why they noticed me other than all my reviews.

      1. Of course. WordPress is now telling me I’m not following you but that’s not correct. I keep getting that error a lot. If I need to I’ll go back and hit the follow button again.
