Hi there!

I decided to take Ritu’s (But I Smile Anyway) advice and check my spam filter.  Oh my goodness!!  So many of you wound up in there.  I’m so sorry.  I was not ignoring you.  WordPress popped you there, instead of here.  But it’s all better now. I’ve put you back where you belong   🙂

If you missed any of Ritu’s #Blogmas posts, be sure to check them out.  She gives great advice to new bloggers, and seasoned veteran’s, as well!!

Inspired by Ritu, of But I Smile Anyway, who is currently in the editing stages of her book!


Mischievous little dragon
Made his way onto the chair

On the desk, the author’s writings
Spread out, without a care

He wondered if she’d notice
If he added a line or two

But dragons don’t know how to write
He pondered, what he should do

Deciding he should try his hand
At a sentence, here or there

With a mighty breath, he blew
Now there’s fire, everywhere!

Whatever shall he tell her
When Mistress sees the mess

“I tried to fix your manuscript
I really must confess!

These scribbles made no sense to me
All I saw were smudges, nothing greater

So I decided to help rewrite the whole thing
I’m sure you’ll thank me for it later!”
