Getting in the Halloween Spirit! (Puzzle-Contest)
Saturday, October 16th, 2021

UPDATE: The winner is…rita!
*~*~*

It’s been a hella busy week! I began a new book that’s due this coming Friday. I’m almost halfway there, BUT I had to spend yesterday and today at the Art Festival! Pesky festival had to fall right in the center of my deadline hell! But oh, it’s fun!!

We’re set up in tents all along Main Street. My stall faced the sun all day, and it was hot—until it was stormy. Then my pictures, in their frames with glass, were flapping on the grid walls from the wind. But it was fun. And validating. There are 35 artists showing. I’m a newbie, but people stopped in because the bright colors caught their eyes. A few, even a couple of art teachers, were surprised by the saturation of color I get from watercolors. “Nice work!” And, even better, I sold some!! I’ll be back there today, so again, no writing, but I’ll be having fun.

Puzzle-Contest

Getting ready for the art show put a dent in our Halloween preparations. We have some major catching up to do after this weekend. We have costumes ordered, makeup planned, but we haven’t started our Halloween movie nights!

Solve the puzzle then tell me how you get in the Halloween spirit for a chance to win a download of your choice from my backlist of books!

Did you watch the movie Timeline? Remember it? It starred Gerard Butler, Paul Walker, and a host of other notable actors. I loved it. I would build fantasies in my head around the adventures I could have if it were possible to move back and forth through time. What wonders would I see? Today’s puzzle will start you on your journey. Imagine if you could spend one day in your fantasy destination. Enjoy!

A Very Wicked Witch… (Puzzle-Contest)

Our family is very serious about celebrating the seasons and holidays. We have garden flags for EVERYTHING. My daughter hangs signage she makes with her Cricut and decorations inside the living room. Summer is still here, but we’ve already had the conversation about what the kids will dress as for Halloween!

In early September, she will be eager to put out all her decorations, including my contribution—a tree filled with Strangling fairy ornaments. Something else I collect. I currently have twenty of them. Isn’t this one cute?

I’d love to hear whether you decorate or have some family tradition to mark the holidays. And have fun with the puzzle!
