One of the hardest things about being an indie author is the fact that there’s no external force demanding a due date. You can write when you want and publish when you want.

Rain cleared to sun as I drove down the area and I managed to get this shot.
There were a lot of pics taken but I’m still in quirky mode so I’ll leave you with this:
