End of An Era, Breast Cancer Recovery, NaNoWriMo, Hallowed Winter

Yes, it is all that and more. And bye bye too.  I will become a B cup by the end of the week. Or something much smaller. Losing 70% tatas to make way for radiation. I think my back will be relieved. I’m carrying hard plastic with magnets and saline in my chest right now. Permanent implants are several months off still until I heal from radiation. 

Hello Everyone,

Good Monday!
It is the last day of breast cancer awareness month!
I hope you all enjoyed your Halloweenisms – or those who don’t do that abominable wicked holiday …
I hope you enjoyed the Harvest! I love the Harvest too. I love it all, really. There’s almost always something to love about any time of the year. Even some things coming to an end can be a relief tantamount to love.
There have been years I called the dress-up time of Halloween, Hallowiener but I don’t even like hot dogs that much, so it didn’t stick.
But maybe Hollow Winter. Hallowed Winter? Hmmmmm.
And I have been practicing a new song that is going to be part of my novel I think. You never know until it’s published what can happen, but I’m very excited about this direction.
And I wanted to share it first on Facebook although now I am thinking maybe the next one goes on WordPress.
It’s just easier to write knowing someone is going to read it and my regular content / development proofreader is at the doctor and I just can’t wait.
Maybe I will do a YouTube live in honor of the last day of breast cancer awareness month – talk about things like:
~ My conversion from being a “pantser” (one who goes it by the seat of their pants metaphorically) to a “plotter” – outlining my insane idea of a story and
~ Most importantly, show off my awesome outfit of the day.
Huzzah.
PS: Dear Reader Friend,
If you would buy me an espresso macchiato, or a Cafe Americano grande with room for cream and the holiday cranberry blissbar from Starbucks – or really any artsy coffee place like Mad House or Coffee Beanery, Gloria Jeans, etc., please consider donating to my GoFundMe. I am working on freelancing and setting up Patreon with my artist visions, but the healing is a lot for me right now – and writing my novels, blog posts and Facebooking a book (because repurposing content!) is helping me get through it and set up my life to start all over. Oh then radiation is coming for seven weeks and they said it will be gentle, but sometimes I swear my cells are contrarians. That can be good but I am anticipating a lot of rest and quiet time and writing like I’ve never written before. 
I will include thanks to any donor who wants it, in a publication of your choice during this time. I will ask you first of course what name or if you’d like to be anonymous. Love those mysterious angels investing in me. Thank you all. 
Thank you for reading and sticking with me here – I plan to pay it forward in big enough HEAPS that everyone gets more than enough to share. I know, that’s a pretty tall order. Like I said, big heaps … 😀 
Your donations help! My GoFundMe link be here.
