Welcome to the Wakefield Doctrine (the theory of clarks, scotts and rogers)
A bloghop with gratitude as the motif, raison d’être, rationale and/or theme of this here bloghop here. The one that Lizzi built. The one that lets you describe the parts of your day/last seven days/life to date that incites you to feel grateful for those events, circumstances and people (especially people). So send in your list and join the fun.
1) Una and Phyllis
2) work (yeah, right)
3) Autumn…. (ok, you’ve had your little joke. Get serious)
4) youtube? yeah, totally grateful for the youtube.
5) the delay this weekend is attributable to my trying to complete the current chapter of ‘Almira‘. In which we follow as Almira and Sterling leave RI and head towards Circe. I say ‘head towards’, because they’re not in any real rush or anything. All they intend to do is return an envelope that Sterling’s friend Cyril Sauvage gave him when they were in France for the war. Cyril did not make it out of Europe, so seeing how Sterling and Almira would be more comfortable being, ‘un-findable’ by certain law enforcement officials, Circe is as a good a place as any to head towards. Also (in Chapter 30) Eliza chats with Phyllis McCutcheon and learns a little more about her friend Dorothy Gale.
6) glad that zoe hosts the Six Sentence Story every Thursday. Good exercise or practice or whatever you all it. Fun, though.
7) Hey! I’m reading (and enjoying) Cynthia’s Book, ‘Marina’s Broken Grave’
It’s available for kindle and such on amazon… go here and get yourself a copy.
8) No TToT would be complete without mention of everyone’s favorite ‘loopholus compendia giganta‘, the Book of Secret Rules (aka the Secret Book of Rules)
9) And, the Graviteers! Hey! take a bow, y’all…. thats Val and Lisa, Joy and Sarah and Kristi and…. Christine (who is gallivanting across the country, racking up mad road trip red.)
10) SR 1.3

I am thankful for YouTube too. It is my go-to.
Glad to hear about Chapter 30 because I know it is a lot of work to create that story and I am deeply invested now. I always wondered about characters like Aunt Emily. Curious to see how the lives of Almira and Auntie Em criss-cross.
…just doing one last ‘polish’ and will have the Chapter out today.
I still very much want to do a writers call in, my writers group meets once a month and it’s kind of organized and I’m still kinda new, so grabbing someone and saying. ‘oh man! the story keeps growing what can I do’ or ‘I think one of my characters is out-growing me, how do I re-connect?’ that kinda thing.
Wonderful treehouse but seeing Phyllis in winter wear…brr! The cold is coming!
Yes, I too am enjoying reading Marina’s Broken Grave. Totally awesome how Cyndi is adding to her very impressive resume :)
I too am glad Zoe continues hosting the 6. I enjoyed participating last week. Nice to stretch the fingers over the keyboard once in awhile :D
GO GRAVITEERS!
lol… yeah, it’s a good reminder, sitting in the woods of warmer times to (hopefully) come again.
Yes! Hey to Una and Phyllis! And that book looks awesome as well. Will check it out
yeah… def a good read… I’ll pass it along!
LOL…thanks for the shout out, dear friend! Haha…glad you’re enjoying the read (because, as you probably know…there’s usually that moment – especially around the time of publishing – that you think, OMG, I hope to goodness that this isn’t awful!).
Glad for your other thankfuls, too!
And Denise is reading, too! WOW! You both are AWESOME!
I’m grateful for the youtube, too. And yeah, what Michelle said: Hi to Una and Phyllis! :)
I ordered my copy of Cynthia’s book. Looks like a tale for Hallowe’en time. This graviteer has been having a rough weekend. Looking forward to the stabilization in the days to come.
As the weather gets cooler, ’tis time to curl up with a good book. Not sure if it is possible to curl up at the computer to write a book, and I think that if it were possible someone would have discovered that. Sounds like you have had a productive week.
Una, Phyllis, and a treehouse! So, I couldn’t quite tell–does the treehouse have steps, or does Una climb a ladder?
steps!
