First Misty Monday

And that title is so blah as to be yech! LOL! Won't be using that again :)

Anyway, here it is Monday and here I am. First I want to take a second to thank all the men and women who have fought, continue to fight, and will fight for this country and for our freedom. I'm not going to get all preachy but I will say that there are very brave men and women out there who put their lives on the line and in the line of fire for us every day. We shouldn't have to have a day to remember and thank them (since every day that can be done) but since we do, please take a moment. My grandfather was in the service for many years and was in three wars. I will always honor his memory and those of other soldiers who have died in the ultimate sacrifice or were prepared to do that and were spared. Thank you.

I had a fun time this weekend, laughing and hanging with friends outside all day yesterday. Today went to see Night at the Museum Battle for the Smithsonian which was funny for the most part :) And now it is the part of the night where I am relaxing. I got through all the pages I had written at the retreat last weekend and now I am doing new writing. My goal for this month was to write 35K words. I have 11K to go before June 6th to hit it. Wish me luck.

Website back up and running

It has been a long and arduous road, but finally my website is back up and running! Yeehaw! Check it out at www.mistysimon.com or you can click the link on the right hand side of this page.

In other news, the last Ivy is done, galleries in, art finished and gorgeous, other little details that Rida so lovingly puts into every book done! And now it's just a waiting game for the release date which I'm told should be in June.

I'm thrilled! I have also found several new and recent reviews for Ivy books. Thanks to any and all readers!!!

The plan is to post on Misty Mondays from here on out. Can I stick with it? Does horse poop stink?

That might not be the best question since it might depend on your preferences.

Anyway, that's the plan and soon I will have blurb info and cover art to share for the Ivy book. Lots to blog about, I hope :)
