Greetings Fellow Readers!
August is almost gone, but what a month it has been. I'm making upgrades to the storefront. I'll be adding more books soon under the pen name of Milissa L. Story and so much more, to include pre-order opportunities for my debut crime novel available in November.
In other August news....
Flash's Adventure: From Bark to Brilliance
We rescued Flash, a Great Pyrenees from a shelter in July. Flash has a very heartbreaking history so far in the first three years of his life. He was neglected; I suspect abused and hasn't had a stable home environment. But he is a sweet boy who wants someone to teach him how to be the best dog he can be. Flash is embarking on his new life! Join us as Flash takes on the role of a star student at the local Basic Obedience Class. Follow his journey from enthusiastic barks to becoming a well-mannered canine companion. With doggy determination and a wagging tail, Flash will charm his way into your hearts.
Our other rescue pup, Maddie, who is half Great Pyrenees, received her Therapy Dog Certification and is learning some fun skills this summer to include some new tricks, nose work, and agility.
Uncover the Secrets of Coastal Virginia: Staycation Getaway
Delving into the realms of fiction, let's not forget the beauty that surrounds us in reality. August in Coastal Virginia offers the perfect opportunity for a "staycation" getaway, which is what I did this month. No need to travel when we have stunning coastal landscapes, historical landmarks, and charming beach towns right in my backyard. So many of these spots readily offer an inspiration for the settings in my favorite novels.. Whether you're enjoying a relaxing day on the beach or exploring the local cuisine, there's something for everyone to enjoy.
