Willow Creek isn't exactly where I was hoping to find myself living as an adult. I was hoping to be much further in the country, but at least it's not the city and I'm happy to be near enough to Granite Falls to be able to travel there for vacations and for some quiet time away for my writing. My writing career is going well. I've managed to earn two promotions and I'm well on my way to the third. In fact, I've published my first book and just received the first royalties just today! Look in bookstores near you for "One Blue Shoe: A Tale of Lost and Found" by the newest children's author, Kasey Hillendale.
When I'm not writing, I'm spending time outdoors, mostly fishing, but I do enjoy gardening, as well. My husband, Braylen isn't a fan of the big outdoors and detests fishing. He says it's gross and a waste of time. I think he's adorable and although I would enjoy him spending time outside with me more often, he truly does do much better indoors. I suppose it's just one of those things that keep us balanced. He enjoys being home taking care of our house and preparing our meals as much as I enjoy my career and spending time in nature.
All that said, I am still hoping to get him to see the beauty in nature. I'm planning a surprise trip for us to Granite Falls soon. Maybe he'll enjoy a brief stay in the lodge. Meanwhile, I should stop blogged and get back to writing. Book number two won't write itself!
