My last post mentioned my writing progress and my excuse for why sharing on my blog has been sporadic. Well, it turns out that when I’m in town, most mornings witness me wearing my wannabe author hat at the WeBe Coffee Roasters. Today, they celebrated their 2nd anniversary, which, while not conducive to writing, was a great opportunity to meet all the regulars on one day and introduce Caroline to many of those people I distract myself with from writing as my social life occasionally takes center stage.

The illustration of WeBe Coffee in the background is from Aileen Martinez, who sketched the place and added it to her 2025 calendar, while the inset sketch is from the collaborative Faux-To Booth that she and Jef Caine operate to produce these lovely drawings.
