A belated happy birthday to all the folks up in Canada that had Canada Day on the 1st of July. And an early happy birthday to the folks down in the US of A that have Independence Day on Monday :yes: 

Can't forget Burundi Independence Day on July 1st, Ghana Republic Day on July 1st, Territory Day in the British Virgin Islands also on the 1st, Philippine's Republic Day on the 4th, and Rwanda Liberation Day on the 4th. Now the question is, do you live in one of these countries other than Canada or the US? :unsure: 

I spent the past week up in Invermere at a cabin, on the lake, in the mountains and had great weather. I also had to do quite a bit of work. If anyone is handing out free back massages, I'll be at the front of the line :)

It is actually hard to believe the 1/2 of 2022 is gone already. Just as a Public Service Announcement, you have less than 6 months to get my Christmas presents :gikkle: 

Now on the serious journalism side of this blog. I like to think of us as being the W5 of the Gay Authors world.

Monday, Cia had the CSR Discussion Day for our featured story for June:

On Thursday, Valkyrie was in to set up for our Anniversary Anthology coming up! Sounds like there is a bit in already, so don't be like me and submit on the last day 0:):

Friday, our Prompt Team was generating up a couple more Prompts for us all to get in the mood with... Writing that is, get your minds out of the gutter :gikkle: :

As mentioned above, we are now through half the year, so that meant Myr provided us with the Q2 Earnings Reading Report:

 

Did you notice that we had 7 days in the past week? Did you also notice that we had 7 new Words of the Day also?

wahine, ennead, titanic, beholden, invigilate, flummox, rebarbative

 

Now that June is done, I'm so proud of you all. We had a great month of meeting our Reading Goals. I also included where we are year to date for 2022:
