A Canadian Thanksgiving

It's that time of year in Canada - Thanksgiving weekend and today, officially thanksgiving. I celebrated thanksgiving yesterday. It was a small gathering as dictated by the times, but I'm thankful that we're all healthy and well and there to enjoy the day. 

There were a few twists in the traditional meal:
                                                                One: turkey this year became  a roast chicken and ham. 
Two: My mother played one of her cooking games - which do you like better - carrot pie masquerading as pumpkin or the real thing? Truly, her carrot pie sounds terrible but passes as an acceptable pumpkin pie.

It was great to catch up. And, with Thanksgiving celebrations over for this year - there's still lots to be thankful for. The weather has been great - no sign of snow, which isn't implausible this time of year. Instead there's flowers still blooming in some gardens. 

Weather and celebrations aside, there is alot more happening or, at least poised to happen. New releases are crowding the horizon for early in the new year. The first up is Legacy of Fear. This story had one of the coolest inspirations for any of my books. I stumbled on Nushu, the only language created by and for women. It was written only and used to message between women in southern China. There's a whole lot more to it than that but that was enough to inspire Legacy of Fear. 

Legacy of Fear is scheduled for release January 3, 2022. It was fun putting a book trailer together and while I've had book trailers before, this was one of the few I made myself.




  

Enjoy your Thanksgiving weekend or just enjoy the day!

Til next time.
