    Creating My First Reader Magnet One of the goals I set for myself this year was to write my first reader magnet. With my first set of deadlines now fulfilled, I knew this was a must. Plus I wanted something to thank all the readers who have been so supportive and encouraging to this newly published author. I had to consider what I should write. I had some ideas, but I didn&#39;t want to use anything that could be a full novel in my series. https://www.asliceoforange.net/reader-magnet/

    Try an Experiment by Kitty Bucholtz &quot;But it reminded me of choices that I&#39;d forgotten. Between the stresses of nearly six decades on Earth and the personal hell perimenopause/menopause have made of my life the last several years, I&#39;ve found myself with a mostly negative and scared attitude about life. This from someone who was called Pollyanna since I was a kid! &quot; https://www.asliceoforange.net/try-an-experiment-by-kitty-bucholtz/

    Every Valentine’s Day chocolate in all shapes and sizes: loose, bagged, heart-shaped boxes, can be found everywhere. Including in my pantry, in the candy dish, on my plate. Well, you get the picture. I like chocolate. (I indulge year round). https://www.asliceoforange.net/chocolate/
