What to do…

I took today off in hopes of doing some writing, but that’s going to fall by the way. I’ve been doing this to gain four-day weekends when the opportunity arises.

This change today is prompted by guests. My brother and mother will show up some time this morning, and I couldn’t be more excited. I haven’t seen either of them for a while, and even though we talk on the phone it isn’t the same.

I can dabble with getting some promotional posts ready for next week. All of those have been well received so far. There are a few that look behind the scenes of my writing habits and they always seem to do well.

Once I get something scheduled, I think I’ll return to a craft book I’ve been reading. It’s a long one, so it’s taking me some time to get through.

Early reviews for Goodbye Old Paint are wonderful. Amazon hasn’t let them through yet, but there are a couple on Goodreads and BookBub if you haunt those places. As any author will tell you, those reviews are everything.

I’m still overloaded with Asian pears. Once the sun comes up I’m going outside to select one for breakfast.

With the book release, and a bit of promo, not writing new fiction for a weekend is almost a relief. It forces me to focus on other things, and family should be at the top of that list.

Old What’s Her Face is otherwise engaged tonight, so I might take the family out for some vampire tacos. There’s a wonderful beer place a couple of blocks from home and their food is great. I’ll probably check out their pumpkin beers to wash it all down with.
