Your Kindle book looked great. I am reading one book to endorse it, reading another friend’s book to review it online, and then I will read and review yours on Amazon and Goodreads. It may be a while, but, for sure, I will.
I am glad you felt your spirit lifting. How lovely!

I’m glad to see you blogging again. It has been a slog for me the last few years. I, also, am writing more again this past year.
I record the weather every day in my journal, then write, “This is the day the Lord has made; let us rejoice and be glad in it.” Make merry. It sets my tone for the morning. Working hard at not being negative.
Reminds me of two laws for writing, I was told. The law of generosity and the law of gratitude should guide.
Another practice I have is reading Philippians every day in November in different translations. Two years ago I worked on memorizing chapter four. It truly makes a difference.
God bless your writing, Anita. I missed your practical advice.
