Here I sit on the Eve trying to catch up on all the things I've missed this fall. You are most important to me. I'm sorry I've been away for so long but I had an accident and needed to recover. All is well now!!
I want to introduce you to Harold, my elf. Harold has been with me since... hmmmm... many years ago when my mother bought three, one for myself and one for each of my two sisters. Somehow Christmas magic has kept him with me all these long years! Tomorrow he'll be gone. Santa will take him back to the North Pole tonight. I'll miss him but he always seems to be close at hand. I must say he has weathered these years far better than I have... LOL! He's like Peter Pan :-)
As for my writing, I had interest in my "Broken Christmas Promise" (mybook.to/B0826VPM11) from a Cinematic group. They said it just was too short with little tension past the beginning for a movie. So with my publisher's consent, I'm rewriting it into a full length book and enjoying the interplay between these two characters and a few new ones.
"Tales of the Silent" (mybook.to/TalesoftheSilent) was well received when it was released in August. I plan a second "Dr. Amelia Davis" mystery. I'm almost done with the sequel to "She's Not You" (mybook.to/Shes_Not_You)! So it appears that 2022 will be a full year of writing for me.
As I look back on 2021, I see loss in our family to Covid, disease onset to one of our little ones, accidents and recoveries, tears and smiles.... In spite of it all, I'm thankful for so many many things in my life.
May you all have a wonderful Christmas and a safe and healthy 2022. I'll be back after the 1st!
Till,
Judi
