I wanted to get here yesterday, but my writing called me through the day. I'm here now and will interact with you before I start writing again. I just finished with More Than a Conqueror. I'm at a place where I need to think about...

Good morning. I know it's been over a week since I've been here. I've been writing. Right now, Wisconsin is in the middle of a blizzard. I don't know how much snow we've gotten since Saturday night. It's over a foot and it's not...

Good Evening - What I'm Thankful for Today - 5 March

Valerie J. Routhieaux @just4him (322493) • Green Bay, Wisconsin 5 Mar

It's been a wonderful day. It wasn't as warm as yesterday, only in the 40s instead of the 50s. Green Bay in March is a cold and warm month. The saying - In like a lion out like a lamb and in like a lamb out like a lion suits...

Valerie J. Routhieaux @just4him (322493) • Green Bay, Wisconsin 28 Feb

It's the last day of the month. We've come to another end. Two months of the year are now history. What were those two months like for you? For me, they've been hectic. I edited and revised six books and am writing one. I spent...

Manifest Destiny Review

Valerie J. Routhieaux @just4him (322493) • Green Bay, Wisconsin 25 Feb

What can I say about Manifest Destiny. It's been a long time since I wrote and published it. It's one of my many favorites. It's the second in the Colonial America series. When I originally started writing the book, it wasn't...

Good Morning 25 February

Valerie J. Routhieaux @just4him (322493) • Green Bay, Wisconsin 25 Feb

I know it's been a few days since you saw me. I'm still alive and well. Life has been a bit hectic, not paricularly busy, but the mind has been on overdrive for a few days now. I thought getting a book published would give me time...

Not A Happy Camper

Valerie J. Routhieaux @just4him (322493) • Green Bay, Wisconsin 17 Feb

Good morning. It's warm, but that's not why I'm not a happy camper, even though my snow is almost gone. The 50s have a lot to do with that. Instead, it has everything to do with Microsoft. I thought I had a great way to make my...

Scarred

Valerie J. Routhieaux @just4him (322493) • Green Bay, Wisconsin 16 Feb

As mentioned in the post Suggested Platform, Scarred is my first title. I started writing it in 1980. It almost didn't get written. I did something that might seem arrogant, but it saved Scarred. My youngest was two my other...

Good Morning 2/13

Valerie J. Routhieaux @just4him (322493) • Green Bay, Wisconsin 13 Feb

Yes, it's me. Before I start my day, I thought I would let you know I'm still among the living. I've been working so hard this year, I gave Microsoft a meltdown. I started seeing things and complained loudly to AI, who told me...
