Pretty simple. Have someone read Otorongo. Have them say they liked it. Have them say they thought it was good.

Hasn't happened yet. Wonder if it ever will?

Meanwhile, guess I should be pretty grateful for what I've got. Vacation in New Mexico.

Stayed in this luxurious house.

Played golf.

Saw a rainbow.

Discovered this Jimson Weed (Datura) plant in our "backyard."

I call them Georgia O'Keefe flowers.

Took a selfie.

Checked out the Anasazi cliff dwellings.

Took pictures of rocks. :)

Hung out in the pools and the sauna.

Oh. Did I mention it was luxurious?

Also managed to read To Our Scattered Bodies Go by Philip Jose Farmer and She by H. Rider Haggard. Discovering all the fantastic writers I missed the first time around!

So I always wanted to be a successful writer. 50 years later, still haven't got there.

You don't always get what you want. But that doesn't mean you don't always like what you got.
