The best readers and writers!) and I’ll be adding some photos and details in a blog later this week, but as […]

I’ve been home two days and am already packing to fly to the Bay Area Friday morning, but wanted to share a few more of my favorite photos that readers and friends have sent me. Hope you enjoy the pics! A new blog is coming soon. I’m just trying to get caught up with laundry […]
Kickstarting a Book
It’s February 26th today. I’d like to have a book done by May 1st. That’s approximately two months from now, and the next eight weeks includes lots of travel, and speaking, and the kids’ Spring break. I can do it. But I have to be focused, and motivated. I’m not focused yet. Not really motivated, […]
