Lupus Awareness Month x3
Happy Wednesday x3 This is post three focusing on Lupus during Lupus Awareness Month! Lupus did not exist in my mind until meeting Samantha in 2013.

I received multiple comments suggesting starting a club of my own. So, I did. We chose our first book inContinue reading “Introduction to Adventure Awaits Book Club”
GTS
During the summer of 2019, I completed a class at Southern New Hampshire University. The final project was a short story about any topic and in any genre.

You Made Me A Superhero
I swear magic spilled out of my fingertips. One night in July of 2018, about an hour after my son fell asleep, my brain began swirling ideas. Reveling in the fact that I created a human and was crushing the single parent game, a book idea came to my mind. The Adventure Awaits theme coveredContinue reading “You Made Me A Superhero”

Adventure Awaits Series Going to a class where they teach you step by step how to paint a beautiful painting held a spot on my bucket list.
