Yellow Jasper for Inner Clarity Yellow Jasper is a healing stone. It heals your inner self. Its properties help clear up confusion and self-doubt. Setting the stage for insight and some inner clarity. Because it helped attain personal clarity and insight, it was often seen as a stone of good luck. Personally, I think once you've cleared away the cobwebs and gained a focused mind, luck creates itself.

I haven't had the ability to really do any morning writing for the past couple of weeks. Back to back trials make everything else fall by the wayside.

Hoping to get back into it. #5AMWritersClub

I am also dealing with a number of emergencies, including a lockdown at the Minneapolis courthouse because of protest activity, the defiance of several court orders by ICE, and the illegal detention of many detainees by ICE (including, yesterday, a two-year old).

I have now heard from all of the Chief Judges of the Eighth Circuit – and many of them have checked with their colleagues and staff – and no one is aware of a single instance in the long history of the Eighth Circuit in which a district judge did what the government asks me to do: review a magistrate’s decision to deny an arrest warrant.

Two of the five protestors were not protestors at all; instead, they were a journalist and his producer.

The chief judge of the federal Minnesota district court writes a startling letter — to explain why he hasn't responded to the U.S. government's request that he override a magistrate judge's refusal to arrest protesters.

Won another trial. I am exhausted. But I think I might be addicted to winning.

Another week, another trial. Words will be dripping out drop by drop this week, if at all. #5AMWritersClub

Help Me CHOOSE the Cover for HIP CHECK & the ENTIRE Name of the Game Series I've got the preorder up for HIP CHECK. The way Amazon is, I had to set out the release date pretty far. Sorry! That's not the real release date. It'll be released much sooner than it says. I put it up anyway, though, because I need to know which covers to use. And I want YOU to help decide. So, please click on the book you like the best!

Open Road is Live in Kindle Unlimited! It's been a crazy last few months. I had some real issues trying to get my account verified. This is a new requirement that Amazon is rolling out to help stop identity theft or some such. Only... there is no way to manually go around the system if the system isn't working. Like it wasn't for me. The program did NOT like my Alaska driver's license for some reason.

Finally got my KDP account running. First up: Rerelease a reverted title.

Professional Motocross rider, Zoe, Akio, has some decisions to make. Two unwanted bodyguards aren't helping. Neither is adding hot sex to the mix. Oh, what's a girl to do, but give into the Open Road.

Free on KU.

Snow tracks that abruptly stop and turn around in the snow

This must be the universal sign for NOPE!!

More snow expected. And it's coming on the weekend so I can be outside in it! YAY! And then I will make hot chocolate and write all the words from the center of my snow cocoon. #5AMWritersClub

It super sucks that I have to go to work when all I want to do is snuggle into this foot and half of snow that fell.

Sometimes, it sucks to be an adult. #5AMWritersClub

It's been so good. I want to make snowmen and snow angles and just play. But I have to pay bills and go to work. Yuck!

So a 12-24 inches have fallen in the last 36 hours. I love it. No one else does. Oh, well. Story of my life. I wish I were still a kid and got snow days. #5AMWritersClub

Witchy, witchy Jade Photo by hatice genç on Pexels.com Witches are represented by the color green. Which makes so much sense. They are of the earth, the ground, the world, the soil, the growth, and all that is centered in the earth. They make things grow, make things dies, are generally tethered to the life cycle of birth, death, rebirth. It's super arbitrary that I picked Jade as the first of the green stones which will represent both the idea and the species of OtherKind presented in the order they should be released.

This is the beginning of the year. I am in the middle of a cold snap that doesn't want to end and it snowed again last night. I feel like winter is not going to ever end. #5AMWritersClub
