“I’m In a Hurry to Get Things Done” … or, Break My Stride

Books By Heather Posted on June 1, 2025 by Michael WilsonJune 6, 2025

For the love of Pete. Seriously. I guess it just goes to illustrate the idiom of “… the best laid plans.” As I’ve been whining about for months now, I have a deadline. A firm deadline. Well, mostly firm. The … Continue reading →

“Keep Pushin’” … or, Welcome to the Jungle

Books By Heather Posted on May 1, 2025 by Michael WilsonMay 7, 2025

May’s blog post comes to you from a hotel room in Red Bluff, California. My second visit in as many months. Who knew so many former Keddie residents would relocate to the same town? In any event, I’m here. Again. … Continue reading →

“April Come She Will” … or, Brand New Day

Books By Heather Posted on March 28, 2025 by Michael WilsonMay 7, 2025

I was going to start this month’s blog post with some lame attempt to be clever with respect to April Fool’s Day. However, it feels a little flat to do that in the written word. Say something, make it convincing, … Continue reading →

“Seasons Change” or…I Can See Clearly Now

Books By Heather Posted on February 27, 2025 by Michael WilsonFebruary 27, 2025

March! My favorite – and least favorite – month of the year. The month when days are longer and warmer, akin to a bridge between ice and fire. And the month death surrounds me. If you’re looking for an uplifting … Continue reading →

“Right On Track” or…The Final Countdown

Books By Heather Posted on February 5, 2025 by Michael WilsonFebruary 5, 2025

The second month into the year already! Time flies when … well, it just flies no matter what, right? Last month, I shared with everyone that I had three major goals for 2025, and that they required me to front … Continue reading →

“The New Year”…or…Taking Care of Business

Books By Heather Posted on January 16, 2025 by Michael WilsonFebruary 5, 2025

Any potential success I may have for 2025 depends on the first ninety days. Starting today. If you read last month’s Musings, you’ll have noticed it lacked my usual high-energy enthusiasm for work, home, and life. There, I explained as … Continue reading →

“A Long December” or…We Wish You a Merry Christmas

Books By Heather Posted on December 17, 2024 by Michael WilsonDecember 17, 2024

Well hello again, readers. I hope this month’s blog post finds you merry and bright. ‘Tis the season and all. The astute follower will note not only the lateness of this December post but the complete absence of November’s Monthly … Continue reading →

“Don’t Answer Me” or…Search, Find

Books By Heather Posted on October 3, 2024 by Michael WilsonDecember 17, 2024

There’s a balance that this month’s blog post seeks to maintain. I’ll probably fail. If one peeks in on my current work from a ten-thousand-foot vantage point, it’s easy to caution me: you’ve only just started. Relax. It’ll be okay. … Continue reading →

“Building a Mystery” or…Murder Was the Case

Books By Heather Posted on September 1, 2024 by Michael WilsonDecember 17, 2024

I’m back. Barely. August was a busy month. In case you’re wondering, I’ve sort of taken it on the chin, the whole audiobook thing (see last month’s rather lengthy Musings rant). Am I still angry? Sure. Rightly so, in my … Continue reading →

“Money For Nothing” …or, Throwing It All Away

Books By Heather Posted on August 6, 2024 by Michael WilsonFebruary 5, 2025

I’m not really sure what these monthly blog posts are for. My manager told me I needed to make them, so here I am: making them. Without GIFs or emojis or anything. Just me, doing them… Are they supposed to … Continue reading →
