mason and pinball machines

Guess who's story is coming in January? Mason's!

You're probably wondering why it took so long for the poor guy to find his happily ever after.

Well, let's just say suspense is hard for me. That's the truth.

What else happened this week? I became the proud owner of a pinball machine named Gulfstream. It's sitting in my miniscule living room like a big, fat, sore thumb. I do love playing it though. I've been extra careful around it. Stubbing a toe on that bad boy would hurt!

All that sounds so upbeat, but this week hasn't been that way. I struggle with worth. That's why most of my books deal with that subject. Mostly, I'm preaching to myself. It's hard sometimes though. Failure is so arbitrary. What one person sees as success another sees as something completely different. It's amazing how fingerprints can be an outward reminder that everyone is unique.
