We’re still in the middle of that promised snowstorm.
Can you see the deer in the woods there? Poor things. I’d invite them inside except:
- I doubt they’d accept
- With two dogs and a cat? Chaos.
Can you imagine? (Actually, I can imagine—I see them gathered around a table, like dogs playing poker.)
This week, I discovered that you can scrupulously brush and floss, see the dentist twice a year, and still need a root canal. In my case? According to my dentist, possible childhood trauma—the sort where one’s mouth meets the metal bars of a circa 1970s play structure. Apparently, this sort of injury can linger for years (even decades) and suddenly decide to abscess.
So, I have that on my social calendar for this week.
The reason for my subscriber-only post yesterday was to test its functionality. Does it really work? Does the text end up in the RSS feed, either on WordPress or over on Goodreads, and so on?
It does work!
Here’s what I’m thinking of doing:
A read-along for The Pansy Paradox in the run-up to the release of The Marigold Miracle.
I need to review Pansy anyway before I dive into the full revision of The Marigold Miracle. But I wanted to do something as a thank-you for everyone who has stuck with me for all these years, both here and on my email list.
I could simply offer up the e-book for a limited time. But I wanted to do something fun, provide some behind-the-scenes writing-related content, and the like.
Of course, I have no idea if anyone will read along. That’s the risk of this.
So, this week, I’m going to assess the feasibility of a read-along. If I determine that it’s sufficiently fun for me, then I’ll go for it. In the same way that Booking Through Thursday is, and The (Love) Stories of 2020 was.
But today, I think we’re going to hunker down and hope the power doesn’t go out.
