Sunday Snippets: May 26, 2019

Well, we made it to the second edition of Sunday Snippets. It's been a busy couple of weeks but I think the majority of our medical appointments are finally over with. I've actually gotten in a little writing - okay, so it's all been blog writing, but that's a start. I'm having to take a deeper look into my characters for the new "Ask a Character" posts. So, if you've read any of my books, feel free to leave a comment with a question for your favorite (or least favorite) character and I'll do my best to answer it in a future post.

Remember the reason for today, Memorial Day. Honoring those who gave their life for our freedoms.

We did try to see the International Space Station as it passed over our area on the night of the 18th. We had light clouds and a gorgeous full moon. We think we saw the ISS as it scooted by overhead!

As an author, I tend to have a lot of Facebook friends who are also authors. Some I have been privileged to meet, others not. But I've been involved with them online for several years and followed them both personally and professionally.

One such author is Holli Spaulding. Recently she decided to fulfill her dream of owning a coffee shop and used book store. Present Tense Coffee and Books is located in Green Cove Springs, FL. She offers both new and used books as well as delicious coffee and fresh pastries.

Many of her fellow authors donated books to help her get started and I was no exception.

In other sundry snippets, I started my own flash fiction word prompt series this week. Friday Foto Flash Fiction - I hope anyone who likes to write will give it a try. Each picture prompt is open for submissions for a week. Here is the prompt for this week and here is my story but I hope you will also read/comment on the other submissions I've listed below.

1.	Keith's Ramblings	4.	Di @ pensitivity101	7.	You're next!
2.	Shelley at Quaint Revival	5.	DC Stultz
3.	Donna McNicol, author	6.	Tessa

Watch for interviews various characters in both my book series - Klondike Mysteries & C'Mon Inn Mysteries. Let me know if you have a favorite you'd like to have interviewed or any questions you would like asked.

Final note - our transplanted rose bushes are growing. Guess it's true, you can't kill them!
