It was my birthday yesterday, so I didn't have a chance to write a blog. However, I did meet my self-imposed deadline of finishing revisions on latest wip! *takes big breath* Now waiting for daughter to read before sending out to agent.
So to celebrate inspiration I'm posting this very moving video of a whale rescue and the tremendous response of gratitude this magnificent creature showed its rescuers.
It is so worth watching!
Hard work pays off!
