Hey all!
Just checking in quickly, mostly to wish those celebrating, Happy Mothers' Day!!
I will be doing a family video chat tomorrow for my mother. Speaking of, I don't know what I'd do without her! And I just want to send out special love and hugs to anyone out there who's lost either their mother or a child.
I realize this can be a happy day for some, but a difficult day for others, so many hugs.


Also, Mom is so special because she is the only person right now that I could trust with reading my novel draft. Although she hasn't said anything about it since the first day I sent her some of it (like 3 weeks ago??), so I'm a little nervous about what she thinks of it now.
But, the important thing for me to remember is that I made a huge accomplishment here! I completed my goal of writing a set number of words in a month, then I edited it over the past few weeks, and then I intend to finish the story in June. This is the first time I've ever written anything with this much "creativity" and output ...ever really! I was really having a difficult creative block for a few years, but this has been very positive! Not sure how long it will last, but I'll take the win!
best!
