Coeur De Louisiane Romancing the Tome Contest!
This news has made my Valentine Day Perfect!
When I was in grade school blustery, snowy, wind whipped, February was my favorite month of the year. All of this was directly connected to Valentine’s Day which meant the teacher let us go all out with the art supplies. And oh, how I loved the colors of red and pink contrasting against crisp white paper doilies! No holding back, no admonitions to be neat and tidy, no scrimping on glue, glitter, colored paper, or over the top color combinations. Not to mention poetry! Words flowed from my child’s brain in patterns of rhyme which sounded like notes in perfect harmony, or words which rhymed in silliness and laughter.
February continues to be a favorite. It is a month to allow the mind to create, to feel excited about the mapped out possibilities which are just around the corner when the earth turns on its axis towards the sun. There are three new bare-root, plum trees planted in my garden. They will bloom with white and pink delicate flowers this spring. They will add to the adventure of the garden.
In my writing journey February is proving to be filled with excitement because my queries are finally getting really, really close. The detailed feedback has been helpful and inspiring. Thank you. Thank you!
Not to leave February undone, I confess to stocking up on, and hoarding, boxes of chocolates under my desk. Come on, admit it. This is the only month serious; quality chocolate, makes its appearance on the shelves!!
