Throughout my journey as reader, reviewer and blogger I've met a lot of great people. Some of them you've already met if you've been visiting each site on the Seasons of Love party/blog hop this week. They are all prolific bloggers and great friends. I've also been blessed enough to meet some great authors who have also become friends, including Laura Frantz, author of The Frontiersman's Daughter , Courting Morrow Little and the upcoming book, The Colonel's Lady.

Fall is the season of chilly weather which I do not enjoy at all. You would think as a resident of Pennsylvania for these past 25 years that I would have gotten used to the cold (yuck) and (blah) rain but alas, I have not. Why you say do I have such a problem with Fall and Winter? Well the main reason is as I stated above, it's cold. I would rather be able to step outside at any time, night or day, and not have to worry about how many layers of clothes to wear or whether or not I can go see a friend.
