Happy New Year! Here are a few of my (non-book) favorites of 2025.
Limited Series: THE BEAST IN ME - I loved everything about this Netflix suspense series. The plot was wild & messy w/o being too outlandish, and the acting was superb.

😀Get it right, folks.
Just like every year, a friendly PSA:

“Feliz ano nuevo” means “happy new anus.”

“Feliz año nuevo” means “happy new year.”

Wishing folks either one is nice, but make sure you’re using the one you mean.

I've been thinking about the best movies of 2025 and I haven't seen any! I cancelled my movie channels in favor of Netflix and I'm not a fan. I didn't like Frankenstein or A House of Dynamite. I tried watching Train Dreams and Nouvelle Vague and gave up.

On my quest to catch up my reviews of everything I read this year, I've got one more Christmas book. This medical romance was a sweet story, and I enjoyed it. Also, if you like older leads, this one has main characters in their 40s/50s. #romancelandia

4/5: Ann McIntosh is one of my autobuys in the Medical Romance line, so I had picked this one a couple years ago when it came out. I've read a couple other books in the Carey Cove series, and enjoyed ...

I feel like I didn't accomplish much writing-wise in 2025. I finished my Texas series in 2023. I did a lot of rewriting and querying in 2024. Then I gave up and started working on a historical romance. In 2025 I did...editing. Editing is writing, yes. But it's not fresh & new.

Both of my kids have birthdays during the holiday season so it's extra stressful. I feel obligated to plan outings and make special memories etc. I just want to hermit! And save money! I'm like a troll under the bridge with a pile of coins.
