Writing Wednesday: What to Write?

Last week’s goals: Posted my own blog on schedule, and managed to comment sufficiently on others. I didn’t have time to explore Literarium properly last week, but my available stories are all out to market for the time being.

Writing Wednesday: My 2019 Report, and Plans for 2020

Happy New Year!!! Last week’s goals: Made my three blog postings, and commented more than usual (and more than quota) on the blogs of others.

Meandering Monday about Playing Games
