Sleepy

August 23, 2017 / Marsha Ward / 0 Comments

I suppose I should not expect to be at my best for writing when I only get four hours of sleep. That’s a hold-over from staying up very late/early watching the pre-game shows on what would happen at the eclipse, then getting up three hours later to view the actual event. It has thrown my sleep cycle out of whack.

I did manage just over a thousand words today when I had my eyes open. I’m thinking it would behoove me to go to bed tonight before midnight chimes on all my devices. What do you think?

In other news, it is raining for the second time today.

Clouds in the sky. Temp just above 80 degrees outside. Computer on and program open. Just right for writing!

Book Description:
How did the Owen Family Saga begin?

With a love story, of course, the most romantic love story of all: when Rod and Julia met.

God must have conspired with the angels to put Roderick Owen of Shenandoah County, Virginia, and Julia Helm, of Cumberland County, Pennsylvania, in the same place on one magical day in Spring, 1840. All nature paused, as though holding its breath, waiting to see what would happen.

In this short novella, acclaimed author Marsha Ward tells the story of the Owen Family origins, describing in her delicate language the tender feelings of two people who need to find each other in a very small window of time.
