Update on my book, my life, and it’s fall!

So, you might expect me to tell you I’m done writing my second book. Sadly, such is not the case! But I am almost done. Ten thousand more words to go, and I’m going to call it a novel.

So, fall is upon us. My favorite season. The air smells fresher, the streets are less crowded, and the grey days of fall bring with them this calmness that is hard to describe. It’s like a veil has been pulled over us. And also, fall brings my second favorite Holiday, Halloween.

This year, I will be doing another giveaway. I’m just late setting it up. It’s already October, for crying out loud! Again, it will be a draw for a copy of my book, Dark Was the Night, and a little extra gift from my Etsy shop. Yes, I have an Etsy shop where I sell homemade goods. Here is the link if ever you’re interested: Body & Light.

What’s new with me? Well, I am still working full-time. Still not enjoying it. I would rather write all day, every day. But the steady paycheck is very much needed, and I work from home, so it’s ok. And also, I’ve been wanting a fourth baby. I know, crazy, right? But since I’m probably too old for a fourth baby, I decided to settle for a fur baby.

Meet Pampinella! It’s a mini mix breed. According to the seller, she is half Netherland Dwarf, half Mini Rex. So, now, with three kids, two birds, and a bunny rabbit, my plate is pretty full!

So, let me get back to Halloween for a second. I want to publish more on my social media accounts because, let’s face it, it’s good for sales, and why have a page and not do anything with it. Might as well shut the whole thing down.

Anyway, this October, I will publish something spooky every day until November 1st. The Day of the Dead. To stir your interest, I’ll start by telling you that I believe my house is haunted, and the strange occurrences that have happened to me and several of my family members will be shared with you in an upcoming post. So, if ghost stories are your thing, stay tuned!

So, this ends this post. Hopefully, the next time I update this thing, my book will be finished!
