Happy Solstice!

Here's wishing all my readers a happy solstice. I do love to think that the days will start getting longer from here, because though I like cool weather and am loving the snow we have all over right now (not so keen on the ice that has made my street a skating rink, but hope it will go away soon), I struggle with the darkness of a northern winter. It is always kind of amazing to me that winter begins when the day length starts to grow, so maybe it's not winter, but autumn, that is hard!

While you are snuggled in avoiding the winter chill or summer heat (depending on your hemisphere), don't forget to take the opportunity to nab a good book, cheap, from the Smashwords Year-End Sale! Many of my books are on sale, with a new book on extra-deep discounts each week. For this week, both Death By Adverb (Pismawallops PTA #3) and Return to Skunk Corners (Ninja Librarian #2) are 50% off!
