Tonight I’m just warming up my blog with “writers’ bloc.” Can you believe it took me forty-three minutes to think of a password complicated enough for WordPress to let me in? (They wouldn’t accept the one I designed last week.) Once I finished reading three websites on how to do it, all the ideas of writing about writing have left my mind. Did you know that computers can roll through thousands of combinations of words and letters in the blink of an eye to figure out my secrets? So why don’t I just use a password like Ilovelucy?
I’ve promised myself that I’ll write at least one blog a week– about anything that fancies my mind at ten fifteen at night. Hopefully there’ll be more content — hopefully I won’t have been writing pages of password ideas first.
But I do still have one sharp, concise bit of information. My eleventh book, first historical novel and the product of almost ten years of serious research (I can write about serious things) will be coming out within six months. Can you wait that long? (I can’t!)
You’ll love this woman I’ve written about– a medical doctor, a writer, an advocate for women, courageous and persistent– investigating and exposing ‘trafficking’ in the 19th century. Her name is Katharine Bushnell — Katie to me.
See you next week!
Thank you, Lorry! So great to read your post! The trafficking topic has always been a difficult topic for me to read😞. However, our granddaughter, Kelly, has spent several months on the Greek island of Losvos working with refugees as they come on shore in orange life jackets and overflowing dingies. Now she is back leading a team working with those being trafficked. Very heavy.
I look forward to reading your new book.
It seems so long ago that we worked together. I miss you!

thanks Evie. It’s nice to know there’s someone reading these flimsy posts. Hopefully they’ll get better as I get into the harness.
