    Hey Pam, Glad to hear from you! Are you part of a critique group or do you have a partner to help you get unstuck? Hopefully some of the short story momentum will spill over into your novel-writing! I was also an avid reader at a very young age, what a blessing that was! Take care, Michelle

    Thanks for the welcome Leslie! I'm also a planner nerd, so I've been using this time to set up some goals and milestones for 2023... Do you have anything you're shooting for next year? Michelle
