Digging In This December

I'll be brief – good thing I write flash fiction! -  because I'm still struggling with my novel/novella draft, and I am determined to be done by the end of the year. 

 

This holiday post is short on words, but it is long on gratitude. As 2023 draws to a close, I am grateful for so much in my life, including all of you. Thank you for reading my dark, weird little stories. Thank you for stopping by this blog. Thank you for all the comments. Your encouragement and support, humor and information are thoroughly appreciated. 

 

*** All of us here at TSR wish you 

a wonderful holiday season and a new year 

that exceeds your dreams and expectations!!! ***

  1. No, no, and no. You need to let us thank you for being entertaining and understanding.

    Be kind to yourself with any resolution you might entertain.

    I have switched my writing to a book about a Wicca coven that ends up tied to ancient gods. The protag gets sucked into by the coven and all hell breaks loose.

    1. What a nice thing to say, Craig!

      I really do need to be kinder to myself with those resolutions.

      Good luck with your writing!

    1. Happy Holidays, Natalie!

      I'll enjoy the holidays, don't worry! But I'll enjoy them even more if I can get a handle on some things - I am more scattered than Christmas cookie crumbs. :)

    1. "Snippets" are appropriate for all the flash fiction I write. :)
