Just returned from a trip to Maui. It is so beautiful there.
We stayed for three weeks, the first two weeks with our daughter and two grandsons with us, ages 8 and 5. Unfortunately, most of the dumping rain happened while they were there. But once it eased up we began to see clouds and sometimes sun. They jumped in the waves, and made amazing sand structures. They buried themselves in the sand at one point, until it took a great deal of digging to get them out. 🙂
Happy Valentine’s Day
I have just returned from time away and am so happy to be back home. I hope you have a lovely day, a little bit of fun, time to relax and enjoy yourself.
Thank you so much for being part of my community in the last year;— for buying my books in all formats, for being a patron of the blog, for leaving positive reviews on the books and for recommending them to others.
I wouldn’t have this career without you, so thank you and I hope you’ll continue to join me for the year ahead.
So much for quitting the bad habits. 🙂
How did your creative goals go in 2022? Please leave a comment and let me know.
I just wanted to take the time to wish you all the best for 2023. We are heading into a brand new year and all things are possible. I spent part of the last day of 2022 going through what I had accomplished throughout the year. The list was good, it buoyed me up to read it.
Then I turned a page and tried to list all that I hope to accomplish and finish in the new year of 2023. That list was no longer, but contained a few things that had been on last year’s list but never got complete. I’m okay with that. I feel I gave it my best effort, so if a few things fell off the table, I’ll just give it another try this coming year.
We went with our daughter and two grandsons, aged 5 and 8, to see the light show at the world famous Butchart Gardens for New Year’s Eve. Here are a couple of photos from our visit.
What did you do for New Year’s Eve?
A stunning prequel to the popular Last War series from best-selling author Sylvie Grayson.
Second waited years to take his father’s place as Emperor. Now he’ll rule the territories his way, with an iron fist. He has a son with his mistress. A son with his wife. His own hareem, and his own army. He can do anything he wants.
Then he encounters Jenna, a counsellor’s daughter, and immediately falls into lust. Why can’t he have her, too? After all, he’s the Emperor. But General Romero Regiment spotted Jenna at the same time, and determines to pursue his interest. Jenna, however, has plans of her own. She meets Sergeant Ryall Norcross of the empire military and the two fall in love. With determination, Norcross sets out to make her his own. He soon finds himself in opposition to his own commanding officer, and the supreme ruler of the Empire.
Second has a bevy of counsellors to obey his orders and help manage the empire, none of whom dare to question his demands. So as he sets out to capture Jenna, what could possibly go wrong? Yet, when rebellion arises south of Headquarters, his rage knows no limits. As the insurgency gains support throughout the Empire, it swiftly heads out of control. Second has to set aside his pleasures and lead his military into war. Will he be able to save the Empire, or is it already too late?
