I am back!  I realize my website has been sadly neglected by ME, so how can I expect anyone else to visit here?  I hope my readers haven't all given up on me.  I have had some health problems besides have been busy with my new book, getting it ready for the publisher, etc.  I intend to spend more time here in the future.

I know I haven't been successful in adding crochet and cooking to my site, and in the futture I will disconinue those subjects and devote the entire site to my writing.  I only crochet now when I need something to do while I relax in my favorite chair in the evenings (after I'm through writing).  I only cook now when I feel inspired to do so, which isn't very often anymore.  So since my writing is my most important activity, that's what I'll be talking about on my website.

I plan to completely revamp my pages as time passes.  it will take a while. Since my last book went to the publisher, I have taken up poetry and I can't tell you how much fun that is for me.  I think poetry gives me more freedom to write what I want and how I want. So in the future I'll be sharing more poems and also some of my short articles.

I hope to gain some friends on my site as I try to conjure up some reasons for peole to visit me.
