Got to read an advance copy of this moody, suspenseful mystery by Lisa Manterfield @lisamanterfield and it did not disappoint (I finished it in ONE DAY it was so good). Succeeds on all levels, great mystery, searing psychological study, plot twists out the wazoo. a new blog post on getting through the uncertainty of change #TheInBetween #WaitItOut #ForwardNotBack Monday Motivation: I like Gilbert’s proposition that ideas are trying to find us. At the very least, being curious sounds like fun. #MondayMotivation #WritingCommunity #Writing #Writingmemes #Curiosity #Creativity Monday Motivation: Cactus!

I feel lighter when I see turquoise! What’s your color? #Turquoise #Joyful #RaiseYourEnergy click to see all three pics (til I learn sizing!)
Things I like: flowers, phone photography, learning new stuff. Saw a post on how good Gen Z’ers are at taking pictures, kind of liked what I learned from them. #LynnLifeLikes #flowers #photography #KeepLearning #ThanksGenZ #iphone11 I could spend all day listing the people who have re-lit my flame over the years. Going to look around and see if anyone needs rekindling today. #MondayMotivation #WritingCommunity #WritingGroup #CritiquePartners #WritingInspiration Some of the little things that make me happy. Starting w Collagen in my Coffee in my Ember cup. Collagen = good knees = still running. Ember cup = no more microwave heat-ups.
