Love tulips! 💞🥰 Making my March plans and trying to figure out how to get it all done. Have you noticed how many opportunities have surfaced? WOW!!! #WritingCommunity #KidLitArt

Happy Monday! These flowers help us know rebirth and renewal are on the way. Let's center on what needs to get done today and crush those goals. Happy Writing to All! #WritingCommunity #KidLitArt

May you find a quiet place to reflect, read, sip, or read this Friday. I shifted passages around in 3-chapters. Actually made it better. Don't be afraid to change it up. #WritingCommunity #KidLitArt

How are you using your Thursday? Washed my car, grocery shopped, and perused Social Media. About time for dinner, then time to edit~edit~edit! Happy Writing to all! #WritingCommunity #KidLitArt

Seems to be a busy week for everyone~including me!! Take a few moments each day to stop, relax, savor the moments. Editing a chapter I'm taking to my critique group tonight. Really like what I did yesterday on it. Just need to tidy things up. Happy Writing to All! #WritingCommunity #KidLitArt

Hope your Monday is off to a good start. What are you working on today? I'm redoing some spreadsheets and hope to edit a few chapters today. Write On!🖋️✍️ #WritingCommunity #KidLitArt

Helped move a friend from rehab back home this morning. Now to settle into the Olympics and plot some things out. What are you doing this evening? #WritingCommunity #KidLitArt

Looks like my calendar freed up so I can concentrate on my WIP & querying for the next 2-days. Yay! Love tulips. Enjoy this pic and Write On! #WritingCommunity #KidLitArt

Supping on my coffee (drinking it really late this evening) and catching up on Bsky! Haven't been on in some time. How have ya'll been? We missed the snow/ice, but got socked with frigid temps. Will take all week to crawl out of them. Stay safe & Write On! #WritingCommunity #KidLitArt

What's up Writers? Are you starting off your week with a plan. I've been backing up my latest WIP. I write in Scrivener, but edit in Word. So, I needed to be sure the Scrivener version was updated. Plus it's on my flash drive (double backup!). #WritingCommunity #kidlitart

A new month has arrived. What are your writing goals for this month? I've already signed up for 2-webinars (back-to-back days!) Ready to get back into a writing routine. Now to plot out how to make these goals a reality. #WritingCommunity #Kidlitart

This always makes me laugh! Querying can make me feel this way. Lately, agents are only accepting 1st 5-pages. WHAT???!!! Used my picture book writing skills to cull the writing to get to the meat of the chapter/story. Check 1st five pages of your story. Does it work? #WritingCommunity #KidLit

What are you up to this Saturday? I thought I would be delayed due to rain showers (Yes, I'd melt~Ha!), but storms held off. So, I'm back on schedule. Laundry next and prepping a chapter to read for my critique group on Monday! Stay kind & Write On! #WritingCommunity #Kidlitart

Thought for the day: This day will only come around once in your lifetime. What you do with it matters. Make your words (both written and spoken) count! #WritingCommunity #kidlitart

Happy Friday! I seem to be all over the place today. I work a bit on this, and then work a bit on that. Hope I get more accomplished than it seems right now! Ha! Happy Writing All. #WritingCommunity #KidLitArt

What a blessing to live in this great country where we are free to express ourselves and serve our God without fear of intimidation. God bless the U.S.A. Long may our flag fly. Stay safe everyone and enjoy the celebration!

Hello #WritingCommunity #KidLitArt !!! It's overcast and a great day to read through one of my manuscripts. I'm about 1/2 way through, and my heart is overflowing with joy. Hope what you write fills you with satisfaction. Happy Writing All!

What are you up to today? I actually don't have any concrete plans so far. So, not much is getting done. And, I'm kind of okay with that! Enjoy #WritingCommunity #Kidlitart.
