It’s been some time since I last posted feel-good feelings. A lot has happened, and then again, a lot hasn’t happened, like writing. Here’s some of what happened:

Bates stopped talking to me.Bates with sunglasses.

I can’t call it writer’s block because I’ve been working on other projects. It’s just that Jon Bates, the strong and silent hero of Book 2 of the Game Changer series, stayed silent. He let me fly him to a Caribbean island, and then he decided to bask in the sun while I figured things out. I was not impressed, and I told him that if he didn’t start talking and provide feel-good scenes, he would be kicked to the curb. As a result, Bates began to talk and let me write quite a few chapters. Although I didn’t meet my October deadline, I plan to present Bates in the New Year. In the meantime, I will show you an AI-generated photograph of Bates. What do you think? Does he match your image of him? Does he give you a feel-good vibe?

We had a Wedding!Team Bride

October 4th was a magical day for our family. Our lovely daughter, Tiegan,  married her man, Dean. He’s perfect for her, and he fits in perfectly with the Armstrong family. The day was filled with many feel-good memories. Lots of hugs and kisses, and dancing! My day started at 5:45 am and ended at 2 am the following morning. We still talk about the wedding and how much fun it was.

 

 

 

We Went on a Mediterranean Cruise.Holiday Feel-Good

 

Hubby and I went on a Mediterranean cruise. We sailed on the Viking Star. Eleven days visiting places new to us while enduring the sweltering heat wave. Although we enjoyed ourselves, I found the heat to be too much for me; it wore me out. Were there highlights to the trip? Of course, there were.: Monaco (F1 racing and Princess Grace Kelly’s gravesite), Dubrovnik (one of the settings for Game of Thrones), and Venice (a romantic gondola ride).
