Tis the growing season. Mostly I grow flowers like these yellow roses.
But this year, I am growing toys by the flowers.
Shoes on the back porch and dogs in the yard.

Moose and Bear
But the biggest surprise of all is my story DON’T MESS WITH MRS. SEDGEWICK is also growing with better scenes and some new ones added. thanks to very capable beta readers and critique partners. As a writer I cannot stress the importance of other eyes on a manuscript. Thank you all.
As one of your beta readers, I have to say I had fun reading your entertaining manuscript. Enjoy your family, Marie. I agree with your comments on beta readers and critique groups. Karen
I am glad you were one of the beta readers and seeing motives differently than mine has helped the story.
Wonderful post! Kudos for writing while so much is growing around you this summer. ~ Ann
Thanks, Ann. Your critique comments also have helped build the characters in Don’t Mess With Mrs. Sedgewick.
