Okay, technically it’s canned cooked pork. But the name Spam is a derivative of “spiced ham”, so-o . . . . By the by, did you know it’s a Hawaiian favorite? Indeedy-do. So much so, there’s an annual Spam Festival (which I have had the pleasure of attending).
I digress again.
Recently, I’d planned to respond to a comment. To the Comments page I went—and noticed [finally] that a number were in the Spam section. OMG. How had I never spotted that? Not seeing for looking?
The plan: delete, delete, delete. But as I started sifting through them, I realized half weren’t Spam (not the ham). OMG. I’d never replied and I should have (or, at the very least, liked). How rude people must think me!
A few offered advice as to how I could/should improve the blog. The suggestions were all valid—and appreciated. Yes, one day I will apply the recommendations . . . when I can embrace Time as a close friend. 
Thank you everyone. I’ll be checking out Spam more frequently in the future (maybe even with a side of eggs and rice).

I'm primarily a writer of fiction and blog posts, and a sometimes editor and proofreader of books, manuals, and film/television scripts. Fact-checking and researching, organizing and coordinating are skills and joys (I enjoy playing detective and developing structure). My fiction audience: lovers of female-sleuth mysteries. My genres of preference: mysteries (needless to say), women’s fiction, informative and helpful “affirmative” non-fiction.
So-o, here I am, staring up a new blog for aspiring and established e-Book writers. The plan: to share the (long) journey of getting to this stage, and share "learnings" and "teachings". There's a lot I hope to accomplish with this blog, but it may be a while before that happens as there's a lot on the ol' plate - taking care of Mom, working full-time, and attempting to get another book in the Triple Threat Investigation Agency series written (never mind blog postings and other writing projects).
It's very challenging and it's all good. As I like to say: teeny focused baby steps are just as effective as long forceful strides. It may take a little longer, but we will get there.

Sometimes I find legitimate comments in Spam. It’s a glitch. See you!
