Got in a quick, early #StetWalk before the heat dome descends! ☀️

I have an appointment and a bookselling shift today, but hope to get in a bit of editing as well. (The MLM romance I'm working on is super cute!) Have a very happy Wednesday, all

Happy Pride! I'm excited this is the month I start a copyedit on a sweet (and steamy!) gay romance novella. I've worked with this client before, and I can't wait to fall in love with these characters and their path to happy ever after!

Confession: I HATE horror! 😱

Well, I did, but now I'm more fond of the genre and have developed a taste for hauntings & stories featuring a specific house or place. I’m not sure what it is about these I’m drawn to…

Do you like horror? I’d love some recs!

My mental health has been in the pits lately, so I've been MIA here, but I am painting, and that's something.

Loooong day of editing ahead, but I took a moment to enjoy the day... Before it gets too hot! #StetWalk #StetPet

Yesterday we had a planned power outage that lasted most of the day, so Josh and I had an adventure date day!

We went on a long walk at a local nature area, had lunch at the most Irish Irish pub I've ever seen, did some shopping, and put together an andirondak chair.

I visited the book church today!

Everything is $1 and all proceeds go to maintain the church. Anything in excess each year is donated to local charities.
On a brick wall is a weather-beaten sign that reads: Kirby United Church, Sunday Services 9:30 a.m. Everyone welcome. A picture of the interior of an old church, which is filled with second-hand books.

I've been quiet for a few days as I'm busy enjoying this view.

Talk next week! 👋

I'm also going to post pictures of my pets from time to time, because look how cute!

Roxy is an 11 yo German Shepherd, and Charlie a 7 yo flame-point Siamese cat.
