The count down to the release of Wolfproof has begun. While the “street date” is Oct 1^st, I’m learning that doesn’t necessarily mean it will be available on that day. It does mean it will be available around that time! So if you don’t see it on Amazon on the first, don’t panic; it will be there soon.

So much of life is “hurry up and wait,” and we tend to devalue the waiting. But amazing things happen and often go unnoticed while we are focused on the next deadline. We forget to notice all of the small joys around us.

Here are a few things I’ve noted lately:

A wonderfully witty and challenging book, The Probability of God, by Steve Unwin.<

How many good, kind friends are happy to celebrate our successes with us. The teachers in my district and my friends are so encouraging and supportive that I may as well have a New York Times bestseller!

How fall is the perfect bicycling weather.

A lovely quote from the writer Barbara Brown Taylor as told by Katherine Paterson in the book Shouts and Whispers,” A story does not ask for decison; instead it asks for identification, which is how tranformation begins.”

The wonderful e-postcards available on Endicott Studio’s website. They have the best in fantasy art!
