Hangin' with the Really Real Housewives :)

Aloha,

To get the new year off to a fun start, I'm guest posting today, Wednesday and Friday with the Really Real Housewives:)

The Housewives are Tara Tyler, Liz Seckman and Ashley Chappell, (and I'm apparently the first male guest host, so blame me, not them:)

Today's post is about making the most out of Mondays, (or trying to forget the weekend is nearly a week away!)

You can read my guest post HERE.

Let the 2016 Smile Challenge Begin...

Aloha,

I'm simply excited to get the New Year off to a smilingly excellent beginning...




I so don't need any stinking teeth to be cute :)



It's freezing, but I'm a boy. Cold does me no harm!

 

 

 

 

I'm just the best superhero ever. Why not smile!

 

 

The Angels went on to beat the Evil Empire in this ALCS playoff :)



 

 

Ok, maybe not everyone is smiling, but Pooh Bear's girlfriend *will* laugh :)

 

 

You go ahead and *Grab* those rays, son :)

...Wishing you and yours the *very* best for 2016.
May all your writing and non-writing dreams come true :)

IWSG - My book is published... What Now? #Yikes

Aloha,
It’s Insecure Writer’s Support Group today, the brainchild (well hang on, it’s been going on so long, shouldn’t it be the “brainteen” by now?) of his Royal Typewriterness, Alex J. Cavanaugh, Esq.

It’s the end of the year, and for many reasons—good and dreadful—I won’t forget 2015 easily. (It’s also true that the older I get, the quicker the years go by! What’s up with that??)

My insecurities this month are simple: My first book, REVIVAL, is published; the book tour is done… so now… what do I do next? Which direction do I go?

To answer this, in part, I’m looking forward to finishing at least two half-completed WIPs in 2016, and we shall see what happens… when that happens.

I’m co-hosting today with Sandra Hoover, Doreen McGettigan, Megan Morgan, and Melodie Campbell!, so see you out there :)

Merry Christmas to one and all, and here’s to a wonderful, Writerly New Year!
