Okay, it has been a very long time since I wrote an Actifit post. I was on a roll for a very long time, but when I broke my foot in October of 2022, that pretty much ended my very long streak.
As I explained in my last post (eek — July!) a lot of other crazy stuff has happened too, including publishing a book. (See my signature.)
Anyway! I’m on a lovely writing retreat this weekend at a resort in northern Minnesota called Jack Pines. After the events of the day today, I took a walk out on the trails. It was quite nice, although I did get a little bit chomped by mosquitoes! The fall weather has not quite kicked into gear.
Here are some pics from my walk.
A fallen blind! I hope no one was sitting in it when it fell!
And here’s a picture of me reading my story from the anthology published by the writing organization that hosted the writing retreat. (My story took the second place prize!)

My bio: I am a fiction writer and photographer based in Minnesota. I have had a lifelong love of fiction writing. I earned my MFA in writing from the University of New Hampshire. My short stories have appeared in a range of literary journals and anthologies, and my first short story collection, Somewhere in Minnesota is available on Amazon US as well as international Amazon sites., Barnes & Noble or from the publisher.
