It’s 7 p.m. and I just got home from my mountain-climbing expedition with Colleen. It was hard, and joyful — and — I need to clean up and reconnect with my husband now, rather than write. Tomorrow evening I will post Top Ten Tips For Climbing A Mountain (Or Doing Any Hard Thing),  including photos from my adventure.

In the meantime, I’m asking my readers to please help me by taking this two-minute survey. It asks brief questions about your viewpoint, is anonymous, and will help me in my marketing efforts to build readership. Thanks to those of you who have already done it.

Finally, have you ever had a difficult decision to make, and wished for a way to know you were making the best possible decision? I’ve recommended a well-researched, highly engaging book on this topic on my Books I Love page, at the top of the Inspiring section. On the first Sunday of each month I’ll be adding a new book to this prolific page that I’ve been running since 2009. Finally, still on the topic of books, my own novel Revelle is now in yet more libraries.  See you tomorrow. Off to consort with my husband.
