Today was a great day! Maybe even a fantastic day. I'm thankful I got up when I did this morning. I had a lot to do before I got ready to leave. I'm thankful for the Market on Military this morning. I sold six books. Totally awesome and blew my mind. I already ordered replacement copies and they will arrive before the next market, which is good. I completely sold out of Scarred. I was hoping I would. I've had the second edition of Scarred forever it seems. Now they're all sold and I ordered copies of the third edition that I published a few years ago after I fired my editor/publisher. I needed to republish it because I needed their publishing name off my book. The next market day is April 1. My shipment arrives on March 30. I'm thankful I have all my steps by the time I got home today. I just might hit 9K before I go to bed tonight. I'm thankful I have all the notifications finished. It was fun joining you in your world for a few minutes. Okay, that's my day. No time for Where Eagles Soar today. I need to get off the computer. My back is complaining big time. So, it's the massage pad for me. What are you thankful for today? Thanks for reading. The image belongs to me.

You had a super day today. Congratulations on selling your books. I am thankful for waking up to a beautiful day here. I am thankful for no stress from my family so far today.. There are so many things that I am thankful for that it would take a long time to list all of the. Get some sleep my friend and hopefully we can chat tomorrow.

@just4him That is the best day to take off. I have been away quite a bit the past few days. It just seems like things comes up that I have to do. I like to do most of my errands and things on one day but it didn't happen here lately. Seems like I am running out of stuff faster.

@just4him It had to rain Sunday night, we got nothing. I think that it is becoming a dry area with the climate change.

That's certainly good news for you. Hope your books keep selling. I had a busy weekend. The bathroom is finally finished except for painting the walls. Today is the first day of spring!! I know that doesn't make you happy

@just4him I've enjoyed all of your books that I've read so hopefully this ladys granddaughter will enjoy the book and want to read more of yours. Happy birthday to your grandson. One of my grandsons has a birthday on Wed this week. I knew you'd be hoping that winter hangs around a bit longer before it departs. I'm looking forward to not having to check the forecast for snow

@Marilynda1225 I just took three of them to her before I ordered them, so she could see them. They are my copies. She selected Thread of Evidence. I just ordered that series for her. I'm glad you enjoyed all my books. I will have Where Eagles Soar coming out soon. I have a proofreader set up and will be giving her the manuscript this week. My son and his girlfriend have the cover almost finished. I'm excited to get this one published. Happy Birthday to your grandson. Yes, it's a sad day seeing winter leave. I know you don't want to see snow in the forecast. I hope it's nothing but rain and sunshine for you for the next 39 weeks.

I'm so glad the bathroom is finished and the only thing you need to do is paint the walls. Thank you. One of the women in the exercise class approached me this morning about buying a book for her granddaughter who loves to read. Yes, happy spring. It's my grandson's birthday today. He should get his birthday present today. I got an email to that effect yesterday. Otherwise, no, I'm not happy winter is almost over. Only a few more hours left. It hits here at 4:24 PM. There have been spring snowstorms and blizzards. I can only hope winter doesn't want to depart so quickly, now that he finally arrived this month.

@RubyHawk Until I did it for the first time, I didn't know all that was involved in publishing. It's a lot of work.

Love the book cover, very nice. Glad you were able to sell more of your books and were able to order more before the next market. I am thankful for the sunshine. It was pretty, though windy. Going to be cold again. in the low 20s.

Thank you. I took that picture with a camera phone several years ago. It needed to be photoshopped because it was from a tall ships festival we had here. There were festival flags everywhere on all the ships and people in every shot I took. The only place there wasn't people was looking up at the mast. They also needed to take the satellite navigation off the mast. Thank you. I'm glad they'll arrive before the next market or I would be very low on books to sell and I'm all out of Scarred. I'm glad you had sunshine.
