It sounds like you’re right where you should be in both the book and the baby cycle, Loralee, although I don’t know how you’re handling school visits AND a 6‑month-old at the same time. Way to go!! 🙂

So lately my endeavors have been mostly about scheduling school visits, reaching out to blogs (a Halloween goal that went very well), and planning to make plans for my creative writing later (later keeps moving). I have written a few short, easy, articles just to keep my hand in, but not returned to focusing on a bigger project. It’s all part of the writing career, and it’s what works for my brain right now.
