Back To School Backpacks
One of the things the Dear Wonderful Hubby and I do every year is donate at least one new backpack to the Little Free Library.
Sometimes we receive these backpacks from companies as schwag or some other giveaway. Sometimes we buy the backpack.
Then we leave it, with a sign ‘Free To A Good Home’ attached to it, before 3pm on a school day at the Little Free Library closest to the nearest primary school. Kids get out shortly after that time. And the backpack is always picked up the first day by someone.
One year, I was fortunate to see the kid who picked up the backpack. The little boy had a clearly done-at-home haircut. His clothes were worn yet clean. He was carrying his books and papers in his hands.
Yes, folks, he didn’t have ANYTHING to carry his books in.
His female guardian (likely his Mom) saw the backpack first. The relief on her face was palpable. She gave it to the boy.
The boy cheered, lifting it above his head like it was a trophy he’d won.
Children like this boy is why we donate these backpacks. We changed two lives that day. And that was so simple and easy to do.

Back To School Supplies
It is back to school time in my corner of the universe. This is one of my favorite times of the year.
I LOVE school supplies. I love cool new pens and awesome notebooks and fun erasers and groovy backpacks (the Dear Wonderful Hubby and I take backpacks with us when we travel). All of these supplies are in the spotlight now and some of them are on sale!
Many writing buddies also share this love.
If you’re looking for us, we might be in the back to school aisles! (grins)

Strive For Forever
This cyborg seeks to vanquish an ancient entity and save his curvy human female.
Euryale made a terrible mistake. She opened a container she shouldn’t have touched and released one of the oldest lifeforms in existence. That all-powerful entity is now utilizing her as its host body and is slowly draining her energy.
Soon, she’ll die.
Euryale has accepted this fate and is determined to use her remaining moments in the universe to save as many lives as she can.
Her plans do NOT include a smoldering-hot, poetry-wielding cyborg willing to decimate entire planets to save her.
While under the control of the Humanoid Alliance, Strive, a K Model cyborg, disobeyed direct orders and refused to kill on their behalf. If he hadn’t escaped their cruel clutches, his defiance would have led to his death.
The male knowingly risked that fate to save the lifespans of complete strangers.
There is nothing he wouldn’t do to protect Euryale. The curvy human female is his genetic match, the one being he is destined to defend.
And she is in danger.
Strive would break every vow, cross every boundary, risk absolutely everything to keep her from harm.
Including battle a deity no one has ever defeated.
