April is proving to be one of those months where nothing goes right. I had to buy a new computer and getting new software has been a trial in itself. I was unable to write for two weeks. Now I'm trying to play catchup which is a little unsettling.

And what happened to April showers? Our grass is a rusty brown instead of a vibrant green. Not even the weeds are surviving. We are in desparate need of rain.

Okay, enough grumbling about my plight.

THEN THERE WERE FIVE, the novel I'm working on, is being pushed back probably June due to my computer problems. Upon the death of her sister, a single young woman takes on the care of her three children, a monumental test at best, increasing her household from one to four which soon becomes five and a new adventure begins.

The rest is on hold indefinitely, CHARLAYE, THE LADIES OF SUMMER PLACE series. ANASTASIA'S MOUNTAIN, a stand alone novel and the FAIRE WHIMSY BLEU series.

Naturally there are others stirring around in my head. A little murder. A little deceit. A little mystery. And, of course, a love story thrown into the mix. More on those as they coalesce.

Until next month! Take care and count your blessings!
