These past months have been quite busy.  I’ve dipped my toes in the Caribbean Sea, the Northern Atlantic Ocean, Pyramid Lake in Paradox, NY, and visited Toastmaster clubs in Maine and St. Lucia.  I’ve zipped through the treetops of St Lucia, walked her volcanic ground, sampled chocolate at a cocoa plantation, and toured the coastline of the island in a catamaran.  Ive met more of my young readers, taught women looking to write for young readers, brainstormed with fellow authors, done some speaking, storytelling, served as a panel moderator, and penned thoughts on paper for another book.  It has been an over-the-rainbow experience, a gift of time with family, friends, and many new friends. Thank you all.  Life is beautiful.
