Mailbox Monday

Thanks for joining me for Mailbox Monday this holiday weekend! MM was created by Marcia, who graciously hosted it for a long, long time, before turning it into a touring event (details here).

Tasha at Book Obsessed is hosting in July. Please stop by Tasha's busy blog, where she focuses on romance novels, with some mystery and suspense thrown in.

I got three short books last week that I plan to rip through to help me with my work on a Board of Directors for a local non-profit.

Unlike with a lot of nonprofit boards, we are not required to actively fundraise, which is very nice. But it is a subject I would like to learn more about, even if just to deepen my appreciation for the efforts of the professional fundraisers.
