Hey there and hello,

Here it is December 31, 2022 - The last day of the year. Tomorrow starts a new beginning with plenty more chances to attain your dreams. I always look forward to starting over as I feel it gives me another chance to do things right. I hope everyone has a safe and blessed New Year!

I am hard at work on the editing of my Hotel book, due out in Aug/Sept of next year. I cannot wait. I am also working on another book about Richmond, and I have some ideas for a couple of others. So who knows what the future brings? I hope I can start to do one book a year or year and a half if possible. Research, pictures, and travel sometimes work against me though so we shall see how it goes.

Have a wonderful New Year celebration and take good care! Talk to you next year, Susan

 Hey there,

I know you guys are busy getting ready for the winter season and holidays that follow. I have been quite busy myself as well.

I just turned in my manuscript and pictures for my Haunted Hotel book due out next Aug/Sept 2023. I am also editing some manuscripts for other authors as well as starting to work on my next book concerning Richmond, VA. I am excited about that as I love the history and atmosphere of the city.

Christmas is upon us, but I have not done any shopping.........I have been quite ill the last week or two, hopefully it will be better by next week. I need to get out and get some presents. One thing at a time though, I have to feel better first!

I hope you are being safe and staying warm here in this part of the US. I know when we went to Australia in 2014 in December, it was quite warm over there. Strange for us to celebrate Christmas while it is hot. They do it every year that way though. I did love chasing the roos and wallabies all over. The visit to the Australian Zoo was definitely a highlight as well as meeting up with some old friends in Sydney.

If you can travel and see new places, you should definitely go! You never know what food you may find or the culture of the location. I always meet interesting people and find some of the best eats anywhere.

Well, take care until next time!  Susan
