Monday is here and I’m still feeling inspired from my weekend meet-up with two fellow authors. They wanted to meet to decide the best route to go when it comes to publishing.

Foodie Writing Prompt!
I woke up this morning and I’m feeling the after effects of my birthday dinner last night.

Everything is so Minnesota today. We went from 70 to 30s today and the first thing I saw when I walked outside were snowflakes. You read that right, snow flurries on Monday. Yuck!

Returning Home
I love going to discover new places small, between, and big. This weekend was no exception. I made the journey North to a small town during the off season and I didn’t miss the other tourists. There were some places closed and that didn’t make it through the past year, not because of the peopleContinue reading “Returning Home”

Our road trip to a small town in Northern Minnesota started yesterday and it rained all day.
