A Writer in Autumn

Nothing like a cool and rainy fall day to sit and write. I’m wearing a hooded jacket, hood up because “look, there goes a chicken,” and my fuzzle kitty Sprye is nestled in a blanket between my feet. I’m a few chapters away from finishing the first draft of Outcast 3, my 24th book and […]
