I told everyone you'd be seeing a lot from me this week!! Well, if you're not sick and tired of me, or you missed some of the updates from this week, here's the skinny. I won't bore you with a long personal update here, though, because it's warm and sunny in the Pac NW this weekend and my computer has been on my lap for editing all day. I'm hot and tired. Seriously, where's my rain! What's your preference? Cool and cloudy with precip or sun gazing all day? Do you like to stay in and read or write or get out on an adventure and become inspired? Share below! 

Monday I featured a newer site author. If you haven't tried Cap's story, why not give it a go?

Tuesday Myr dipped into the boots and chaps genre with Westerns! 

Back to me again with the announcement for one of our popular writing events! 

Between all these of course were Myr's Words of the Day where you can learn something new.
