Welcome back to the May Edition of the Merry Go Round Blog Tour. This month, we’re talking about our current projects. I have two: The revision of Polar Bear on the Loose and a short story where the theme is cat eyes. I’ve been working through the Holly Lisle’s Writers’ … Continue reading →
Mr. L and I tried an experiment last week. He had to stay in San Antonio several days longer than I did. I had a dental appointment in Central TX on Monday and he had a doctor appointment in San Antonio on Thursday, so we agreed he would keep Rossie … Continue reading →
