Debstories2
Things are changing and staying the same. I'm specifically talking about myself. When introducing myself and my blog, I originally mentioned that I was an author, educator and a mother. That is true, but my ideas for a blog come from my daily life and don't necessarily encompass those three identities. So, if you read any of my musings and want to comment, I'm happy to answer.
Now I am working on social media and how to sell and/or promote my book UNIQUELY STELLA. My dubious confusion with social media may or may not be due to an age factor. My FB account was originally set up by my daughter, Amy. Every now and then, I check it out to see if she has put anything outrageous on it. At least I know where the delete button is, but that is about it. My book was given its own Facebook page. I think it has more friends than I do which is completely weird. I also seem to have an Instagram page which I've never seen. I think I better do that soon. Finally, I have a twitter account. Twitter used to seem odd to me. It was full of political nonsense and other nonsense. I gave up. BUT, I have been told the error of my ways. So now with help, all these social media accounts have been revitalized under one name - debstories2.
That is my email as well. My sister told me to use that in the early days of emails. My name is deb and I write stories, too.
Now, I'm reading all these social media accounts with curious interest. Some things have changed, including me.

10202020
10202020 has been circling inside my consciousness since the year 2020 began its tumultuous reign. By 10202020, the cancer treatments will be over. By 10202020, the cancer will be forever gone! By 10202020, I will be completely healthy. No one will remember the car crash. I will be able to forget what I don’t want to remember but remember everything that I should remember. Covid will be a distance, horrid memory. The smoke will have dissipated into clear, crystal blue skies. There will be no killer bees or whatever the terminology was or is. The fires will be extinguished and houses rebuilt. Storms will blow away. By 10202020, people will be reading my book AND they will like it and give it 5 star reviews everywhere. UNIQUELY STELLA will be a best seller! Well, ok, that one wasn’t exactly on my top ten list - more a dream. Yet by 10202020, I did celebrate my birthday by actually going into a restaurant which is a rare circumstance. Today is 10202020, my birthday. I am well and feeling fine. So, I can’t quite remember everything exactly the way it was but my world is experiencing a positive spin. Those 10202020 goals didn’t all come to pass, but they are not forgotten.

Time to blog
The idea to do a blog hadn't been on my radar until my young niece mentioned that I should write one. She told me that since I like to write, then I should write a blog. She was right. I originally started a blog post in a diet website. Yet, that seemed strange because my interest wasn't really about dieting. Once I published my book UNIQUELY STELLA, I started a website and wrote some blog entries. I doubt anyone reads them, but I enjoyed writing them. If you would like to read some unique pieces, please go to my website at www.deborahmenenberg.net
