Don't let the blues guy feel you. That wind was better cold.
Ahem. Let's try that again, voice recognition on the phone: Don't let the blue sky fool you. That wind was bitter cold.
It's finally feeling like winter.
Brilliant Blue Sky over a snow dusted Mountain, on the other side of a snowy field.

A book cover shows a dirt road through prairie grasses leading to a two-story building that is ominous with only two windows lit up. Behind it, the sun sets over a mountain. Dramatic clouds billow up, getting darker behind the title: A Stone Cold Murder: the Reluctantly Psychic Murder Mystery series by Kris Bock. Text says: 99 cent sale! Petra Cloch can touch an object and glimpse its history. A murder weapon might show her the emotions of the killer–but that doesn’t mean she can identify them.

You know you're getting old when a friend your age says, "I had an amazing night last night!"
... And then tells you how they slept 8 hours straight through.
And you're jealous.

Spotlight on my new #mystery novel: "One of the fun side effects of being a writer is that you get to research lots of unusual things. Example of my internet search history:
Is it legal to tap someone’s phone
what type of fingerprint scanner do phones use..."" https://lttr.ai/AncS6
