Life is good! No insecurities this month!

Hi everyone!

Sorry for the late post, but I am MOVING into my new place in ORLANDO Florida! Yay!!! After 18 months of trying to find my winter escape, I finally bought a Condo...

So NO insecurities this month! I currently have no internet, so I am ousting this from my iPhone. Hamlet, my Westie puppy, loves his new digs, but he is definitely over the car after two days driving.

I can't begin to tell you how happy I am...

So here is my writer advice this month.. Ever give up your dream.... No matter what it is. BECAUSE, In Time... You will get there.

Another wonderful big I'd news is I also have my first published short story coming out on May 31st! That thing thsat turned me, an anthology will debut. It's an amazing collection of over thirty accomplished authors... Including Alex J. Cavanaugh.

Please drop by the other wonder writers in the IWSG... They will truly inspire you!  I'll write more soon along with pics. Once I get my internet... Lol.

Congratulations, Michael! Wow. Does that mean you are selling the place you just spent so much time and effort redoing? I know finally getting to move to Florida is a big relief to you.

When you're in Orlando, you'll be about two and a half hours away from me. I hope you like it there. I'm sure your condo is nice. Is it for winters only? I love Westies.

Love,
Janie

Better late than never, buddy! Glad you and Hamlet are loving your new digs. So happy for you. How long you've wanted this dream to come true. Just keep any swords away from that cheeky Westie!

Hi Michael ... so pleased for you - that will make one huge difference to your life - enjoy the summer, once you've settled down - and am so pleased Hamlet's survived his travels .. I bet he and you are chuffed to be on terra firma with a home of your own ...

The anthology - looks good and so pleased you've got a story in there .. cheers Hilary

Yes, I wondered about your Chicago home, it is so beautiful. Glad you are so happy in your move. Been reading the anthology. Enjoyed your story.

This cheery little post made my day! I'm thrilled to see that you have found your sunny spot!

Congrats Michael. Boy would I be happy for two things - getting back to the states and finding a way to survive there. Well you say never give up on dreams. I haven't yet but it is a tough road to travel. Hope you get your Internet soon. Right now I'm hanging in there and thinking positive and of course continuing to blog.

Oh man, just realized I missed the ISWG. Hair Ball had surgery this past week. I completely forgot.

Happy for you in the new home. That anthology is on my list.

Dianne K. Salerni said...

Congratulations! Enjoy your new home! I hope it's sunnier in Florida than it is in Pennsylvania. (It would be hard not to be. We haven't seen the sun in at least 2 weeks.)

Carol Riggs said...

Congrats!!! SO glad to hear you are there. I bet Hamlet is definitely glad to be done with all that driving and chaos. :) Have fun settling in! Congrats on the anthology again, too!
