I'm a fictional character...sort of.

Our oldest was born in 2006. 😊 When we started taking him and his twin brothers to the Gorge with us -- I think around 2014 or 15? -- we always headed straight for the terraces.

This was my 2nd trip to the Gorge; my first was when they came in 2009. That one was... a lot. 😞💔

Welcome! First heard them in '93, saw my first show in '95, and I'm still here for this exact reason. 🎶♥️

This gem is a prime example of that coming together thing, and you can hear the audience feel it. Start paying attention around the 17:30 mark. ;)

That's adorable! ♥️ My mom has been gone 15 yrs. I once resurrected an old Yahoo email I'd had in the hopes of finding even just a grocery list from her somewhere in the old messages. I broke down sobbing to find nothing there. What I wouldn't give for a text thread from her, no matter the content. 😞

My husband often searches for his phone, which is always sitting on the stereo bc he plugged it in to listen to music through our speakers.

Yesterday, he looked at it to check an album name, then walked away looking for his phone because he intended to look up the year that album came out. 🤦🤣😂

We also have 3 boys. I'm so glad my youngest (12 yo twins) have an older brother (19) who knows Tate, Kirk, etc. are douchebags. They look up to him so much; he's going to be more influential on them than either of us will be during their impending teen years.

Blurbs are tough, but I'm less intimidated by the 100k ft view than I am the 30k ft view needed for a 500-1,000 word synopsis. Including more detail runs the risk of pulling me into the weeds. I have 2 weeks to have a draft ready for review by a professional I hired to get my query package ready.

It really is. I *thought* I was "finished," then I started putting my query package together. Writing the synopsis really highlights areas to revisit. I saw several spots where I needed to be more crisp on showing progress toward the story goal. #amediting #amwriting #writerscommunity #booksky

I try to take solace in the Paul Valéry quote: "Art is never finished, only abandoned." 🤷‍♀️
