I am not really going to be using this site anymore. As fun as it has been, I am trying to focus more on my writing and my new romance series, Jericho Falls.
Thank you so much for all the fun and support over the years. And listening to my rants!
The boyz say, "Thanks for the adoration we so richly deserved over the years!"

After at least three years of neglect, the walk to the creek was rotting and completely overgrown with marsh trees and grass.
