New to me, anyway. Here is a shot of lenticular clouds, taken by Jay from my beach. More here.
lenticular clouds over Mt Rainier
Three things I’m grateful for:
- The Delete button on my keyboard. It is my favorite way to deal with cranky e-mail notes.
- Jay again. For reasons I would never post on the Internet. He makes me laugh.
- Mount Rainier, greeting me at sunrise on a rare, clear morning in November:
grateful for the morning
What are you thankful for right now?
Mount Rainier - October morning
It’s worth getting up for! Please enjoy today’s sunrise. I’ll post more workshop notes after I’ve had my coffee.
A propos of nothing writing-related, I have a fabulous condo for sale in the ultra-hip neighborhood of Queen Anne.

It’s an adorable one-bedroom in The Apollo, a converted midcentury modern building. This has a million-dollar view of the Sound, ferries, Mount Rainier and the Emerald City.

My friend Pete took this stunning picture one morning. 
He’s a key organizer of Arms Around Bainbridge, an athletic event and benefit for Olivia Carey, a beloved islander suffering from ovarian cancer. I feel so lucky to live in a place where people take care of each other in creative ways. It’s a perfect example of how a person can use his gift and his passion. to help someone.
Last year I wrote a story to benefit Cottage Dreams, an organization that gives cancer victims a week in a rustic lakeside cottage. The topic was tailor made for me–a lakeside cottage? I am so there. I’m proud to have a publisher that gives authors an opportunity to use their gifts and passions to help others.
