2017 An entertaining year that delivered special rewards and achievements to many. It nudged me forward into publishing my novel Seaside Glitter. Rewarded me with the love of family and friends. Today I received a positive review, while chatting in church prior to the opening of Mass. Yes I will admit it felt great. It also encourages me to continue my daily adventure in the novel that is currently carrying me off on another journey in the world of fiction. May 2018 shower each of you and your families in a sea of loving positivity.

With a new year on the horizon, a new Christmas Tree standing tall in our living room awaiting a tradition, yes we still have many of our decorations from our first Christmast Tree, a dream achieved with Seaside Glitter published and its follow up unfolding a touch more with each new each day ,,, can it get any better? Yes! Thursday December 21, 2017 will mark our 49th Anniversary. AND yes I am the charming young lad in the photo with that full head of hair. The young lady…my loving wife and soul mate. Love you more Sweetheart.

Finally I’ve stepped beyond my written notes and entered the opening chapter of our next adventure into my new book. Yes it opens inside the old Ramsay homestead in East River. Suspect the approaching new year will energize my creative side. Yes my keyboard appears to have taken on a lighter touch.
