Same. I type for work and as an author. When I interview, I promise the person I'm talking to that I'm listening and taking some notes. It's the only way I'll remember what that person said and still be able to read it later.

Does anyone else think that maybe they need to go back to grade school to learn how to write legibly? I swear my handwriting gets worse every year and is at the point where even I can't read it. π€£

Good?? I don't read a lot of horror/scary, but I do love King. I've been wanting to read this, and the last one he did with his son.

Saw on @sarahweinman.bsky.social. Need to look into it more. Not sure how many Indie Bookstores support Indie Authors. Seems a mixed bag; some love to have indie's in their stores, other say too costly. Things do move at lightening speed these days, so keeping an eye here.

Some self-promotion today. Chasing Hope was released on Black Friday, and I fell in love with Matt and Hope from the first chapter. Along with twists and danger, there is hope.

I wish I knew where "Other" was. This is a first for me. I usually see US, Canada, India & Australia. None in UK, which is a bummer, but a few from India, which is awesome. Congrats to me on my first "other." I love knowing people around the world have read my books.

Can I go out on a limb and say don't buy into the idea there is a "secret formula to creating" anything? I think having a secret formula would be terrible. I love how different minds work; I want to see, hear, read, taste, and/or feel what each different creative mind envisions for their creation.

Happy today! Reviewer left five stars on my title Going Home on both Goodreads and Amazon. Has 44 ratings @ 4.4 stars. Not too shabby, if I do say so myself. My followers are aware I'm trying to get to 50 on Amazon. Why not help an author out? I'm so close!

Tomorrow starts the hum drum of winter, and for some, January is cold and gloomy. To counter the winter blues, my new novelette, The Babe & The Librarian, is set on the Florida coast. Join Jenna & Sean on their summer adventure.

Just watched Unaccompanied Minors. A bunch of kids get stranded in an airport on Christmas Eve and run amok. The kid from Everyone Hates Chris is in it and adds a lot of fun to the movie. Not A-list actors, but lots of ones you would recognize. And it was inspired by a true story. Give it a watch!

Follow Julie Miller and explore their bibliography from Amazon's Julie Miller Author Page.
I like to read Harlequin Intrigue and have four favorite authors. Today one of them has a bunch on sale on kindle. If you haven't already, Julie Miller's books are fun, entertaining reads, mixed with the intrigue you expect from this series.

Had our Christmas gathering at work today. I got them gifts they loved. They bought me a super soft, warm blanket for the office. It's going to get so much use!
