When you reach the end of the road, find a new path

February 21, 2018 By Lenora Worth

Hello, everyone. I always feel a bit confused and out of sorts when I finish a book. It's The End and I'm always relieved and tired and ready for a three day sleep, but I begin to miss the characters I've been with over the weeks and months.

Road Trips Can Be Fun

August 5, 2015 By Lenora Worth

Hello. I'm  at work again after taking a two week road trip all the way to New York City and back. I used to fly when I traveled to writers' conferences and workshops, but since my husband retired a few years ago we now drive just about everywhere. It's fun but it can be exhausting. We have a Mini-Cooper and you should see that little car full of two big suitcases and books and book bags. (Plus, … [Read more...]
