The Changing Seasons

Well, at least they’re trying to change. Welcome to Northeast Georgia.

Here it is the middle of March. Earlier this week, the temperature was around 85. Yesterday, around 65. Today, around 75, with lovely sunshine, flowers beginning to blossom, and the peach tree all dressed in pink.

Tomorrow the rain will be back, most likely. And on Monday night, the temperatures are predicted to be below freezing again. With any luck, maybe some of the fruit trees will survive.

I don’t know about you, but I like my seasons to flow along naturally, not bounce back and forth between spring, summer, and winter at a whim. Has anyone seen Mother Nature recently? Is she behaving normally or is she off her meds again?

In the meantime, we’re trying to catch a break between rain showers to get the garden ready for planting. At the moment, however, there is still water standing in the low spots, so it may be a few more days, especially with more rain headed our way. Of course, the last thing I heard, Monday’s rain may be snow flurries instead.

So I’m back in the house working on my writing. I just released a new book under the Sultonna Nadine pen name you might enjoy if you’re a fantasy and romance fan. LADY CALLOWAY–A Question of Heresy–a fantasy, romantic suspense, religious conflict, alternate reality story.

What would you do if you had faithfully followed your priest’s teachings all your life, but suddenly found yourself labeled as a heretic by your husband–who works for the church.

And if you are the husband, do you choose your church and turn your wife in as a heretic? Or do you rescue her from the church you have served for years? The church or the woman you love?

Come with me on this journey of religious conflict, forbidden abilities, and a young couple caught up in the middle of it all.

In the meantime, welcome to spring–or winter… Have a wonderful weekend and we’ll chat again later.

For more on what I’m writing, check out my blogs at Mellie Miller–for my series books, or Sultonna Nadine, for the stand alone books.

As always,

Remember to be kind…

April is Right Around the Corner

Yes, it’s that time of year again. Spring is beginning to show herself in the woods around here. Tiny flowers are making an appearance, leaves beginning to test the air. The Carolina Jasmine hasn’t bloomed yet, so I’m hesitant to say it’s planting time outside.

And of course, I’m stuck in the house on light duty while I recover from surgery. I hope my doctor will have a good report later this week and I can start getting back into the swing of things. All right… I take it slowly.

In the meantime, let’s all enjoy the beauty of spring. I know there will be more rainy days, but we need those to bring all the little growing things out of the ground. Just like in life, you need a few little problems along the way to help you understand more fully the wonderful times.

Speaking of wonderful times, today marks the 48th anniversary of being married to a most wonderful man. It doesn’t seem like it could possible have been that long ago.

Have a wonderful week and remember,

Appreciate the beauty which surrounds you.
