Frosty View

For years I wanted a window in my writing studio and I finally got one in December when Tom and I moved into our new place on the third floor of the Box Factory for the Arts.

Unfortunately this view, which I'm sure is fabulous in the summer, is cold and frosty this time of year. It's a little chilling to look out and see snow flying and the icy water of the St. Joseph river flowing with slush in it.

But, cold or not, I'm working on three writing projects I'm determined to finish this year and perhaps having it be so fridgid outside just inspires me to stay put and not venture out.

Tom and I are anticipating a trip to California in June, which will be here before we know it and the view from this window will be much different. And if I can keep to schedule, I'll be nearing the completion of three writing projects I've been working on for five years.
