Connie you’ve been through so much and yet you’ve continued with your writing. Hugs to you as you follow your dream.

Shara thanks for the compliment and for stopping by and commenting – better late than never!

Mary, hugs to you, too, as you continue windmill tilting.Time for yourself is so precious right now. Creating your blog to map your journey was a great idea to indulge your creative expression and keep your sense of self. .

I am such a Don Quixote Girls fan! You came into my life just as I began tilting at my own windmills with my mother.

Karlene & Mia,

I’m sorry I missed the blog yesterday but see I’m not today’s only entry. Fun that it carried on Thurs.

Writing has served you well, getting through the parts of life that tend to be overwhelming, and coming out the other side with books that are deservedly recognized. Way to go, ladies!

Ladies-

I understand all to well the obstacles to your writing. I’ve been there-from a mother dying after a long illness to taking care of grandchildren.

Your book sounds wonderful. Thanks for blogging. Looking forward to reading your book.

Hi Ladies, great post. Since I know you both well and have lived some of the same experiences that you have had with parents and family, I am happy to see this being received so well. It was a labor of love for both of you and I am proud of you. It is a great read and I’m sure many others will identify with the characters in there as well.
Best Wishes for much success. Hugs, Carol

I loved reading how your book came together. I am sorry for both of your life trials. I can relate to some of them. Good luck with your blog. I look forward to reading it.

I too love the idea of your book and can identify with many of the trials you mentioned. Several of us here can relate a bit too closely, perhaps. Humor is essential in such circumstances! Thanks for introducing us and our readers to The Don Quixote Girls.

Mia and Karlene, What a great adventure! Your book has quite a bit I can identify with, too. I’m going to keep your advice so I can review it with regularity. Thank you!
