Okay, so the title of the post doesn’t really have much to do with this post…except for the fact that it’s National Lighthouse Day! (And I love lighthouses!)
https://nationaltoday.com/national-lighthouse-day/
Things are still all maelstrom-y over here, but I did manage to write up my horrorscopes and my tarot-cards-for-inspiration reading…and I finished up some interviews and book reviews, with more to come soon!
Still having a spot of trouble getting back into the habit of writing/editing short stories but maybe when school starts and time shrinks, I’ll get more on top of things.
And, as is a writer’s wont, even though I have several drafts and one-almost ready full-length manuscripts laying around, I had the ABSOLUTELY PERFECT IDEA FOR THE BEST NOVEL EVER and put everything aside so I could scribble down all my swirling ideas (speaking of maelstrom!)…
Anyway, here’s the links to my Horror Tree goodies:

Some boring blather you don’t (and probably won’t) have to read. LOL!
A lot can change in a year, but I’ve kinda sorta almost officially set my compass for New England somewhere. I still am holding out hope that I can afford to explore around this region a bit, but at the same time, I don’t want a repeat of what it cost to get here (money I didn’t have, essentially). So I want to put every penny and planning prep into the next stage of my cross-country move.
I may just have to do a series of shorter moves rather than the exploration I’d hoped to do.
Anyway, if you read this far, go hug a lighthouse today!

I will have to go out and look for a lighthouse to hug. Your post has a lot of detail and hence a lot of work Willow. Thanks for doing that.

Amazingly, we have some lighthouses here in Nashville. Faux ones. Like outside the storage place up the street or at our marina…which houses the bathrooms. lol
Still, what a fun post. Interesting to learn that you love lighthouses! AND excited that you’ve narrowed down your focus to a region. AWESOME!!!!!

Lighthouses are one of the reasons we vacation in Maine every October…..my favorite painting that I’ve ever done was of Nubble Light (which is also my favorite lighthouse out of all the zillions there are). You will FEEL it when you land in the right place. We have a built in “homing instinct” – just like pigeons! LOL
Hugs, Pam
