I treat myself for my birthday and I have a treat for you The arrival of June is special for me as it’s my birthday month and I treat myself in a number of ways all month, because why confine myself to a single day?

I turn in a draft! And then another! And start work on something else! This past week I had the great pleasure of turning in the draft of The Starseekers to my editor.
