CALM MARCH
Finally, after epic roller coaster monthssssss, March has been so kind to me. π I was able to write for my two favorite prompts:
I was also able to join several tags (which I loooved a lot! :D) I miss doing Three Line Tales though. π¦
HOPEFULLY KINDER APRIL
With the summer kicking off, I am hoping April will be as kind or even kinder to me! π Because I want to continue with dVerse and FFfAW plus, I signed up toΒ NaPoWrimo! (Except the weekend prompts because I am mostly offline on weekends. :()
BOOK UPDATE
Finally, I plan to do the TITLE REVEAL of my upcoming debut book this month. π (It’s been months since I started with this project and I am excited to share this with you, guys! <3)

I am good. At work right now. Just finished adding a couple of words to my current project (for Camp NaNo) during the lunch break. Should get back to work now.
Congratulations on finishing the book. Are you looking for a publisher or will you go the self-publishing way?

Thank you so much Rosey, I really appreciate it. After I wrote my comment to you my brother called and told me they transported mom from the rehab facility back to the hospital and she was doing 100% better. The doctor asked that she not have much company because she needs to rest so we decided I would wait until May to go see her. I am relieved to know she is doing much better!

i am doing research Davy and it is a challenge given my location. (the Philippines). Most of my readers are from US or India. And other countries. I have contacted a printing shop here but the shipping cost will be three times the price of the book if i publish here. So I am opting to use Createspace (the printing arm of Amazon). π
