When you have seen six decades of life it’s hard to believe that 2024 is a date, never mind 2025. When I was a child, it was a future of robots and flying cars. But, here we are, in normal life. My husband has always hated New Year as he tends to look back at… Continue reading Goodbye 2024

I have writing goals for next year and they are still in my head.

Who was the she, the author was talking about? It took me back to my mentors who, when editing my books, constantly asked me… Continue reading Karen’s Chat – Who is She?
