Happy Holidays!

We here at TSR want to take this moment to say how grateful we are for all of your encouragement, interest and support over the last year. Your comments and your visits are much appreciated.

And we hope we gave you something in return! A few chuckles? Some book recommendations? A creepy-crawly shiver or two? 

We wish you all a wonderful holiday season!

See you in 2026!

Happy Holidays!

This month’s post may be short on words, but it is definitely long on gratitude.

 

We here at TSR are so grateful for all of you who read this blog and the stories (micro, flash and otherwise!) We appreciate everyone who takes the time to comment -  encouraging and supporting, sharing information or something about yourselves. We hope you all keep coming back! 

 

Wishing you and yours 

a joyful holiday season 

and all the best 

in 2025 and always!

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!!! *** 

You Know Who You Are

Some writerly gratitude, from me to you -

" . . . WE PUSH EACH OTHER 

TO WORK HARD AND TO KEEP AT IT.

IN A WORLD FILLED WITH PEOPLE

WHO THINK WHAT WE DO 

IS A NICE LITTLE HOBBY,

I ALWAYS KNOW 

THAT I HAVE A FRIEND

WHO UNDERSTANDS EXACTLY 

WHAT'S AT STAKE."

(David Hicks)

Thank you, friends!

Gratitude, Passion and NaNo

"TO ME, 

NORMAL IS THE ABSENCE OF PASSION.

I WANT TO CRAVE AN EMBRACE,

LOSE MYSELF IN THE TASTE OF A

DELICIOUS PIECE OF DARK CHOCOLATE,

FEEL EVERY HAIR ON MY ARM STAND ON END 

FROM THE LICK OF A COOL BREEZE.

NORMAL?

NAH, KEEP IT.

I'M TOO BUSY 

BEING GRATEFUL AND PASSIONATE 

ABOUT THIS LIFE I'M LIVING."

(Kristin Cast)

Busy being grateful and passionate? That's me! Hopefully, it's all of you, too. 

For the rest of the month, I'm throwing myself into my NaNo novel. I will come up for air. And turkey. And chocolate. And to remind my husband and the tortoises who I am. But otherwise, I'm pretty much on a blogging break.

I wish you all a wonderful rest of the month and a very happy Thanksgiving! See you in December!
