#IGAuthorLifeJan Day 1 – Happy New Year

Happy New Year!

So, 2016 was, well, interesting.

Okay, more like one long session of torture at the base of Mordor, especially if you had to survive the US election with your brain cells intact.

I didn’t get much writing done in 2016, but after a health issue (and the enormous selflessness of so many many people who came to my aid), a summer packed with author events, buying and selling a home, and getting back to driving a 16-ton school bus, I’m happy to report that I’m back on my feet and writing like a maniac.

And, well, I do write like a mental case . . . which translates to my books if you’ve ever read any of them. And, yes, I make resolutions (not that they stick around for too long). This year, however, I’m determined to kick off the New Year right with my first resolution being that I will COMPLETE the #IGAuthorLifeJan challenge. The list is below for each day, but today is #1 – Happy New Year!

It’s a photo challenge, thanks to bleeping Instagram, so my picture is at the top of this post for Day 1: New Year = out with the old, in with the new (courtesy of Narl the Wonder Chicken, aka Peep my Lovebird). You can follow me on Instagram HERE. Cheers!
