The other week, I wrote a post about a free promotion I ran for a limited time on my first book, Oak and Mist. It was a pretty successful promotion, increasing my readership and leading to further sales, so I was happy with the result.

Wordless Wednesday – After The Rain
Autumn Rambling
Today the gorgeous child found this lovely leaf on the way to school, so we stopped to take a photograph.

I think it’s entirely natural, really. YouContinue reading “Breathing Out”
