The "Prepping" Edition
Hello, Dear Readers,
A final Happy New Year to those who celebrate or support!
These high holidays, which came late in the calendar year, are now over. My 8+ week dip into sciatic pain is lifting. My book is launched successfully and I’m in promotion mode. I really appreciate the terrific notes and texts I’ve gotten from those of you who bought the book — and especially appreciate the amazing reviews that many of you have left on Amazon. If you do have the book and have not yet had a minute, it helps my sales every time a new one posts, so thank you in advance!
So now I suppose it’s time to face the fact that our election is a mere three weeks from Tuesday. I really wonder what’s going to happen, don’t you?
Well, there will be three LZ Sunday Papers between now and then. It will faithfully report all the news by, for, and about women each week. From Politics (sigh) to Pop Culture (yay) and most everything in between.
Self-reflection, and also prepping for a break-the-fast with friends and neighbors, is preventing me from spending any more time here. But next week I’ll try to do a round-up of the awesome movies I’ve seen recently. Some of them are real doozies!
