All day I’ve been trying to think what to write and I have nothing. I can’t think of anything shiny and happy, or controversial, or ranty. I’m numbed by recent events. Social media is a powder-keg at the moment, and all I see is post after post of angry, hurt friends asking people to listen, and other posts talking over them.
I’m taking a step back, my friends. Because I can. I have that privilege. Other people aren’t that lucky. The events that are happening – it’s their lives.
I’m going to focus on finishing my book and spending some much needed time on my house. You never know, I might have something positive to talk about next month. Much love.

The Isle Series
I live in the Dallas area and didn’t watch the news before I went to bed last night. I woke to the knowledge of more shootings, more deaths and that reminder that no one has any answers on how to prevent this in the future.
Today I am going to surround myself with family, friends and books. I am going to demonstrate kindness through my own actions and words. Hopefully there will be something I can do in the future to heal hatred in others. I can’t see past the escalating violence right now and it hurts so much.
I’ve served in the military and have friends and family members who are police officers. It scares me that they are targets, and I worry that mistakes have been made by others, resulting in them now being in danger.
You’re choosing to put down the pen today. I can respect that.
I’d like to ask others to put down their weapons and take up their pens instead.
