Good morning, InspyRomance! Did you have a good week? I spent my week recovering from the ACFW conference [it always takes at least a week to do!] and working on my blog post for Friday and assorted things going along with that! I also worked hard to get back into the swing of every day life.
And FALL has finally come to my part of the world! It doesn’t look like it’s going to last long, but for now we’ve got the windows open and I’m looking forward to all my favorite parts! For me, that’s fires in the fireplace, cozy sweaters, National Novel Writing Month (NaNoWriMo), and yes, I’ll say it, getting ready for Christmas ;).
What about you? What’s your favorite part of fall?
We have winners!!! Please contact us at:
