In this chilly, sunless time of year I can’t help but appreciate the plants in my garden which remain green. The evergreens. Three years ago when designing the layout of this garden (my first) I spent hours researching and studying the important elements which anchor a garden. Evergreen trees and shrubs are one of these elements.
They are symbols of persistence. They stand as fundamental reminders for those of us who are writers to put on our coats, hats, and mufflers of deepest evergreen, and to tug on our loden green waterproof boots, and march out to continue on our journey of creativity. Whatever our situation, we have stories to tell and persistence is the color green!

Wahoo! A couple of months ago I decided to enter a few contests in other parts of the country. I'm excited to announce that The King's Map is a finalist for the Historical Category of the Romancing the Tome Contest sponsored by the Coeur de Louisiane chapter of RWA. The neat thing about this contest is you get your critiques back and then get to make changes before the final round of judging. Winners will be announced in February.
Wishing you all Peace and Joy!!
