Where Have I Been?
Even I'm surprised that it's been 365 days (thanks, leap year) since I last posted.
Some of you (that's assuming anyone still checks this blog) know that my father died suddenly and unexpectedly two years ago. That sent the entire family reeling. Well last summer my father-in-law died suddenly and unexpectedly. This spring my last remaining grandparent died, though neither suddenly nor unexpectedly.
There have been some good things. I got back into theater, doing two shows last year, and will be in one this summer. My daughter has found her feet and is starting to really find herself in high school, doing musicals and show choir, and next year maybe academic decathlon, while keeping her grades up and staying out of trouble. My sons are doing okay, making progress at their own paces.
I have done some work on North Pole Confidential, but no, it's not finished. My plans to build a small, portable recording studio kind of thing stalled out, so I've made no audiobook progress. I had begun working on a Christmas-themed Regency story, which is also--you guessed it--unfinished.
Not much else to report really. But I will be participating in Weekend Writing Warriors this weekend, and hopefully doing that at least semi-regularly again.
Thank you for reading,
Kate

Welcome back. My dad died suddenly in 1999, so am familiar with the feeling. I’m sorry you had to go through that, twice. I’m rarely on Twitter anymore. Too toxic. You should join Threads. The writing community there is wonderful. If you join, follow me. I’ll follow back. Glad you’re alive and moving forward.
