I've been posting a lot of my books I've read to my blog and need to post them here as well. Never enough time. I looked at my reading list; I don't think I'll ever finish "Tender is the Night." I'd like to, but goodness, it makes me tired.

Hello everybody, sorry to have been away from GR for so long. Time does fly, and I've been reading/writing/networking, and stumbling as I go. My 2nd book, "Children of Discord" is finally out and available on amazon. I'm looking forward to getting back to Goodreads and resume the networking with other authors. Some of you I see on FB. Still reading your books, and am enjoying them very much. Plan to post as I finish...but time does go fast!! Hope all is well with all of you.
