 Meander 1 - Reading - I've fallen behind on my reading lately. The tripsto the hospital somehow drain energy. But I'm back and will plunge in.

Meander 2- Thoughts - A week plus ago, with my foot tangled in the cover, I fell out of bed and smacked my forehead against the separater of matress and the other one. MY granddaughter rani and assessed the klutz. My fore head was turning color. "I may have a concussion, I said. "To the hospital, she said. Thre, th did he admission things and took me to radiology. Sometime later the doctor comesin. No concussion," he said. "That's great news, can I go home.

He shook his head. "You've broken your neck and need surgery. Off  went to a different hospital and had the surgery. All seems well now.

Meander 3- Writing - Doing a bit on the new ook every day. Hope to finish the first draft in July and then polish to send it off.

Meandering on Monday with Janet Lane Walters #BWLAuthor #MFRWAuthor #reading #writing #Thoughts

 Meander 1 - Reading - Slow going because so much is to be done on other projects. Am on the second of the three BWL Books I'll read for April. One not purchased but that's my choice. The first one was good and so is the second one so far. The new books will be out before I finish, I fear.

Meander 2 - Thoughts - Today, I purchased an in door stairlift for the house. Actually, I just down paid it and have a year to decide. There are days when walking upstairs is tedious but I do manage. But and there's always a but. I have to depend of Ashley or Keith to walk behind me. So it goes.

Meander 3 - Writing - Have six chapters ready to do an final typing and then a final read. Who knows what i'll do with the book but I will find something Nine more chanpters to clear. Then it's forward to theHorror Writer's Demise.

Meandering on Monday with Janet Lane Walters #BWLAuthor #MFRWAuthor #Reading #Writing #Thoughts

 Meander 1 - Reading - Reading more slowly these days since I'm going to bed earlier. I'll be back to full energy soon. Reading Helen Henderson's latest. Now there are two dragons and one woman who can become a dragon. Seems one dragon is the villain. The way people react when they see a dragon even when it's helping makes me wonder how things were years ago. There are two love affairs happening and one with a heroine who is a healer still needing to be trained, Interesting interactions between people, especially one at least was considered a bad guy but turns out to have changed.

Meander 2 - Thoughts. I'm thinking of writing a letter to the editor. For several years my memories have been blasted into the past. I'll be 88 this summer. Seventy years after my eighteenth birthday, I became a student nurse, My first patients made me realize how unfair the world was to women. One was about 30and had eleven children. One was maybe fifteen and had been sexually molested by her grandfather for years. The reason they were patients were they were dying because one tried to abort herself and the other had an illegal abortion. The things I remember the most was the silence in the room and the odor that made me gag. I also remember the doctor answer my question. "Couldn't we do something?" He nodded. "We could." "Why not?" "I would be in jail. Abortions are illegal." He also told me that desperate women would find ways legal  or not to abort children. When Roe vs Wade passed, the nagging memories receeded. They were awakened when the Supreme Court undid that great happening for women and has grown worse since the Arizona decision. May god have pity on the souls of the men who want to see women in chains and to know that no matter how conceived their seed will grow to do the same thing to other women.

Meander 3 - Recieved the cover to my next book which is in the rough draft. Must get buys with the tyoping on the last fantasy and see what i can do with it.

Meandering on Monday with Janet Lane Walters #BWLAuthor #MFRWAuthor #Reading #Writing #Thoughts

 Meander 1 - Reading _Reading bits from varied authors, Mary Balog, Elizabeth Peters and maybe others. Soon it will be time for BWL new releases. There is one I won't buy but that reason is mine to consider.

Meander 2 - Thoughts - My cell phone recieves strange messages from strangers. I have no desire to get involved but the question asked was one to interest me. What do I think of the supreme Court? Not a hard thing to answer. I feel they are close to being traitors and enemies of Democracy. Why they are giving Trump any time troubles me. He is a man who committed crimesand we don't know the extent of them. Who did he sell secrets to and for what. Wasn't for money that can be found but he gainse something from someone and most of the court's judges are waiting for their reward. No man is above the law and certainly Trump is not. Let the trials begin and let the people see just how much damage he has done. I'm sure mostof his followers will cheer but surely there will be some who can see the light.

Meander 3 - Writing - Have finished writing the draft of Keltoi. Now to finish the typing. Have started the planning for the Horror Writer's Demise and hopefully will completed within a week or two.

Meandering on Monday with Janet Lane Walters #BWLAuthor #MFRWAuthor #Reading #writing #Thoughts

Meander 1 - Reading - Reading some Mary Balogh. She sure gives hr characters hard things to conquer but all does turn out. in the end. Now reading an Andre Norton one from the 1940's interesting WWII story.

Meander 2 - Thoughts - Still concerned on the national level with the election that's months away. Sure wish the fat man would give up the ghost and settle down to putting his house in order. Don;'t like the idea of him begging for maney and I don't trust who he would take the funds from. All I can do is hope and pray for the best,

Meander 3 - Writing - Going slow with this UTI and being tired from lack of sleep. Hope I soon reach the with place so  I can finish wirting and get on to writing another thing while I'm waiting to finish Keltoi.

Meandering on Mondau with Janet Lane Walters #BWLAuthor #MFRWAuthor #reading #writing #Thoughts

Meander 1  - Reading - Finished the three BWL offerings and found the last two interesting. Also learned a bit. Am now reading a Mary Balogh, Once again her characters are interesting and different.

Meander 2 - Thoughts - Mr. Trump gave a disturbing bunch of remarks last evening or the one before. Why is the man so filled with hate? Why is he so hung up on dictators? I can't understand this in a man who has everything, money, wife, homes yet all he feels is hate. Does he hate himself?

Meander 3 - Writing - Have one and a half chapters to go. This urinary tract infection is holding me back because I'm so tired. Hopefully the antibiotics will take this all away,

Meandering on Monday with Janet Lane Walters #BWLAuthor #MFRWAuthor Reading #Writing #Thoughts

 Meander 1 - Reading  -Just finished Eileen Charbonneau and Jude Pittman'sSpectral Evidence and enjoyed it very much. Have finished also Racing with the Moon, a different type of mystery and enjoyed it. Will review later.. Am reading No Time For Hate. Just scratched the surface and will finish in a day or two. Then it will be back to reading older books.

Meander 2 - Thoughts - Politics are really soemthing else these days. That poor woman the Repos had tocounter Biden's Address - which was brilliant. Hers not so much- acutally the reverse of brilliant. Now we know what the Repos think of wemen - Keep them in the kitchen and give them a mostluy eradicated southern drawl and have them whimp, whine and cry but say nothing about what they would do to make this a better place to live. Guess they don't think that's important.

Meander 3 - Writing - On Chapter 14 of Draft two of Keltio. To finish that and then start on what I hope is the final draft.

Meandering on Monday with Janet Lane Walters ##BWLAuthor #MFRWAuthor #Reading #Thoughts #Writing

 Meander 1 - Reading - I'm reading one of Kurtz's Camber stories but a few more whapters and I'll be reading BWL's three releases this month and looking forwardto them.

Meander 2 - Thoughts - Let's not hear it for the Supreme Court. I sure hope they don't say Trump is above the law and doesn't have to pay for his crimes. I know he gave many of them their jobs and they belong to that radical conservative group but they also aren't above the law and there are a few criminals sitting on those seats. Maybe it'stime for new members and no one gets a life sentence unless it's for c crime. The murder of the United States must be stopped.

Meander 3 - Writing - Am moving ahead with Keltoi and have started to work on the Demise of the Horror Writer. Finally came up with something to uncomplicate the plot a bit. and I now know who the murderer is.

Meandering on Monday with Janet Lane Walters #BWLAuthor #MFRWAuthor #Reading #Writing #Thoughts

 Meander 1 - Reading - At presentam reading an Andre Norton fantasy that's excellent. The heroine has a mirror that can enhance her power and she must us it to help others. She is basically a Healer.

Meander 2 - Thoughts - There is a primary in s. Carolina. I don't think I want either Trump or Haley to win. I do not like the things they stand for. Republicans want to turn theclockback to when women had no rights. I remember how when we lived in Texas, this was before my second son was born. I could not have a checking or savings account in my own name, though i could in Pa and Ohio. If I hadn't been married, my father would have to be on the accounts with me and if he wasn't around, a brother could take that place. Ridiculous.

Meander 3 - Writing - Am moving along with Keltoi and will soom reach the end of the second re-writing. Then it will be time to check and see what needs to be added and then what I will do with the story.

Meandering on Monday with Janet Lane Walters #BWLAuthor #MFRWAuthor #reading #writing #thoughts

 Meander 1 - Reading - This week, I've been reading several Regencies. The books are all right, not great but good.

Meander 2 - Thoughts - Dealing with Credit card companies is interesting. I've had to deal with two during the past two days. Odd thing is they're with the same bank but different cards. The Chase Amazon card problem was handled easily. Took no more than fifteen minutes. The Freedom one took a whole morning of talking to someone who I'm not sure knew what he or she was doing. Finally got that settled and recieved a new card so all is good. Hope I don;t have to do this again.

Meander 3 - Writing - Keltoi rewrite is going well. At this point I'm working on Chapter five for the second round and the word countseems to be what I need it to be. Aiming for 50,000 plus wwords. Who knows what I'll do with the book when it's done but I'll find somewhere for it and perhaps the others in the series to go.

Meandering on Monday with Janet Lane Walters #BWLAuthor #MFRWAuthor #reading #writing #Thoughts

 Meander 1 - Reading - Am now reading some Balogh's Regency stories. Several I haven't read before. I'm always amazed about how she chooses characters and gives them a hard time and gives them love in the end.

Meander 2 - Thoughts - Politics is still so evident in the world and I do not understand why one man is thought by so many people to be worthy of becoming president again. From all I can see is there is something wrong iwth him and has been for many years. About the other candidate, they yell about his age. I'm older than he is and I think I'm mostly with it mentally. Sure i forget things but are they important things, I don't' think so. I think what should be stressed is the records. What did Trump accomplish during his four years. From all I can see is not much. He didn't handle COVID at all well, or the economy ov helping anyone but the rich. Biden has pulled the country from financial lethargy and has set many programs that help people. For me, it's who has done the most for the most people, not the most for the few,

Meander 3 - Writing - Moving forward with Keltoi but what I'll do with it when I finish I'm not sure but I will find something. It's my best yet.

Meandering on Monday with Janet Lane Walteers #BWLAuthor #MFRWAuthor #Reading #Writing #thoughts

 Meander 1 - Reading - Finished the last of the novels aboug a dragons in the Regency Era. Am noq looking forward to the new books from BWL. I will enjoy all but most only rate, I do reviews for the ones speaking to me.

Meander 2 - Thoughts - Things are becoming more political and some strange events are happening. The reps , not all, but those on some committee tried to do a not nice thing. Fortunately didn't work. I'm not sure where their ideas re coming from but I really feel them are running over the cliff like lemmings. If their favorite gets in, I along with a lot of people will be in trouble since we are not line followers over cliffs.

Meander 3 - Writing. one more chapter to go to finish the rough draft of Keltoi. Then the fun begins. I'm also doing those things for Jude. Will do one more  and then stop.

Meandering on Monday with Janet Lane Walters #BWLAuthor #MFRWAuthor WReading #Writing #Thoughts

 Meander 1 - Reading - Still reading Temeraire stories. These last ones are ones I never read and am enjoying them. It's now back to China and dreadful events there with attempted assinationof Crown Prince and attempt to put this on the British.

Meander 3 - Thoughts - NH primary finished and Trump won but not by as big a margain as before. Nikki Haile will stay in. I'm sure she won't over take him since he has such a bunch of fools who think his s--- doesn't stink. He is totally unfit to lead the country anywhere but to the depths,

Meander 3 - Writing - Time to stop playing around and get serious. I really must finish Keltoi and decide what to do with it. I'm thinking of pulling the other three books in that series and taking them elsewhere. I will at least bring that up to Jude.

 Meander 1 - Reading - Still reading Temeraire series and enjoyingthem. Now reading ones I didn't buy in paper. Also had to read my own Gemstones preparing for writing another Regency. Found it easy reading but also saw a few errors.

Meander 2 - Thoughts - Not politics but this new stuff have to do for the books for the past three years on Amazon. Looks like a real chore since I have seven to do. Not sure I'll be able to finish before the nonsense wants me to pay,

Meander 3 - Writing - Rough drafting Chapter 8 out of ten at present. Then the material will sit fallow for a time while I see what needs to be added and changed in Keltoi thought what I'm going to do with the book when it's finished.

Meandering on MOnday with Janet Lane Walters #BWLAuthor #MFRWAuthor #Reading #Writing #Thoughts

 Meander 1 - Reading - Reading Novik's dragon stories some for the first time and some reading again. Am enjoying these stories.

Meander 2 - Thoughts - Elections are in the air and it's the start of the season that goes on forever. Though I wish the repos would see how ridiculous they are to stick to the old loser, I know they won't since they have stopped being a political group and are now a group of followers rather like lemings heading over the cliff.

Meander 3 - Writing - Have finished roughing six of the mystery part of the story. Then I'll have to go back and rough in the developing romance part. Tht will take several books of the series to be realized,

Meandering on Monday withJanet Lane Walters #BWLAuthor #MFRWAuthor #reading #writing #Thoughts

 Meander 1 - Reading - Finished the BWL new reads for the month except for the one coming nearer mid-month. One good, one not good and one good except for a little glitch that's mine along. I do not like stories when in the present tense. The story was great but I wasted time rewriting sentences in myhead to make them past tense. The story I didn't take too greatly was because I couldn't understand the science behind the premise.

Meander 2 - Thoughts - The politicians are at it again. Sometimes I think those of the Rep party are not too bright. They really are the do nothing party and that isn't good for the country. I have been voting since I was 21 years  old. Back then I was an independant completely and was able to vote for members of both parties. As the years have passed, I no longer feel that way. These days it seems as though one of theparties has given up on the country and does nothing. That is sad and I now do not think I can vote for one of the parties again unless they can change their tune and policies. The Repubs are do nothings but complain.

Meander 3 - Writing - Four chapters rough drafted of the Horror Writer's Demise. and 6 to go. Have started that one.. Rough draft is a bit shabby but it always it.

Meandering on Monday with Janet Lane Walters #BWLAuthor #MFRWAuthor #Reading #writing #thoughts

 Meander 1 - Reading - Reading a lot of different books. A Mary Balogh I haven't read before and enjoyed. A pairof rather innocents are married and they must learn to live with each other. Alo now reading an Andre Norton I never read before - this is almost a Gothic.

Meander 2 - Thoughts - The Reps are foolishly trying to do some research to find something the current president has done that could be imoeacheable. Problem is one of their committee says there's nothing. We all know why this is being done. Not to find a crime but to invent one to make him look bad and the real bad guy less awful. Fools. They have done nothing to govern the country and sure hope they all lose their places in our next elections. I definitely will not vote for the current rep from my area.

Meander 3 - Writing - Have started the rough draft of the Horror Writer's Demise. Going slow but always does when one begins a new project. One day, it will take off an them I'll have to go back and write the first few chapters again but not until I reach the end and can go back to the beginning.
