Happy Sunday. Here is my Latest Post for the Widow's Voice for Soaring Spirits, International. #widowed #widow #pets #therapydogs widowsvoice.com/post/forward-f…

@juliekingsley Congratulations!

I had so much fun at my book launch last week. Felt fun to be interviewed for a change. Each question was a surprise and I was there for it. Love when the tables turn. Thanks everyone for coming out!

@dog_rates Quint. May be the only Quint ever.

Here are the most popular dog names of 2023! Did your pup's name make the list?

@kwinterland @ABC They weren't.

@ABC I’d bet money they were pit bulls. The owners should be punished how horrible

Many of our authors have been confused that they can't find their books at Indigo (aka, the B&N of Canada) lately. This weekend's article absolutely turned my stomach. theglobeandmail.com/business/artic…

@MissPandaBear1 I got married at 37 and had 25 years of happy union until I was widowed without much warning 8 months ago. The grief is profound but I am grateful for what we had.

@PageTurnerLit So sorry. I lost my Teddy Two Tone last year. Bury him in your heart.

Dave & I helped Timmy cross the rainbow bridge this morning. He was the best dog and my companion for the last 15.5 years. His full name is Timothy Jonathan Cramer-Tan but also answered to TimmyTwoTone, Trimmers & Buddy. He loved frisbees, french fries, & crawling under blankets.

@mcvalada My dad was a gym teacher and coach. A great person. Never a bully He would never do that. Why would you just assume that?

Looks like an effin’ gym teacher/football coach. Those were always bullies. And Indiana is racist as all get out.

@vselvaggio1 Sending White Light.

My thank you post on 2-11 was a glorious day. My dad had shown some improvement and I felt that there might be a chance for recovery. That glorious day is what I hold onto now, as I mourn the loss of my father, who passed on 2-18. He was a great husband, father, and person.

I'm a proud Septuagenarian (yes, I am 70), avid Pet Portrait artist, who supports kindness, dog causes, dog mums and who considers women like us, 'Esthers' of our generation. I painted this, "A modern Japanese lady with her dog", for you celebrating each our anomalytic gifts.

@KaitlynLeann17 Love it. Although it would be fun to live it, too. Pawty on.

@KaitlynLeann17 Live it. I wrote a PB with a similar theme a while ago.

#WorkinProgress for the lovely Dog Dads in your life: An awesome portrait so right for him. Painting level 5 already gives a cool feel of a handsome gift! PetPrissy.com @MarshaCollier @JenReeder1 @dogweek @kkcthornton @OldeEnglishBul1 @OurFamilyDogUK @cassntay

@caytlyn_brooke I don't say anything. People are busy. I just hope they enjoyed it.

Question: If you know a friend bought your book and read your book, but then never posts a review or reaches out to say they finished it, what do you do?

@DWAA_US @JetBlue Jet blue always rocks. Only way to fly.
