April has been a busy month for me as far as travel goes. In fact, today I'll be in airports and cars most of the day traveling to a writers' retreat, so please forgive me if I am delayed responding to comments. I thought I'd share some of my experiences from the quaint town of Mason, TX. I was invited to come speak at a library event back on April 8, and I had a lovely time. Got to see some … [Read more...]
