I am still listening to the rain. We went for a Riverview walk , Billy and I, and got soaked.  I better put on my rain pants again this week.  Hubby is working...but for how long? The rain is drip dropping on the deck in singing thumps. I am worried about a lot of things nowadays, like many people. I still pray for peace in the world and in our mind hearts. I wish I read more. And why hasn’t Goose Lane gotten back to me? 

Maybe I should submit the manuscript to other presses? I have been pretty impressed by Goose Lane since 2016. But I don’t get why they are taking so very long and I fear they will just dismiss me in the end, without telling me their decision.
