Thanks so much for these little gifts, Angela and Becca, very much appreciated. Writing has fallen by the wayside a little, too tired with work – age catching up with me! – but I still value tips and pointers like this.
And love the Godzilla cameos!
We like adding a bit of fun, especially at the end of the year. Sorry to hear lots is going on–I think we all tend to get worn out around this time. I hope you find the holidays help you refill your well, Joy, and so glad you’ve liked these brainstorming lists!
