Eva’s Byte #383 – Signs
Signs, subtle or obvious, are all around us.
This week I noticed subtle signs portending the seasonal transition to autumn. Tree branches relinquished their symbiotic hold on several leaves whose blades lay shriveled on the ground. A large acorn on the concrete walking path I take, reminded me of the squirrels’ instinctive diligence to gather and store food in preparedness for winter.
I welcome the anticipatory signs of autumn which preface colorful foliage, crisp air, and the cozy ambiance instilled in home and hearth from spice-scented candles.
In the capacity of a writer who’s a pantser all the way, my protagonist has given me a sign to transition into Part 2 of my Contemporary work in progress. I’m currently drafting chapter 19 (993 words thus far). If all goes according to plan, I’ll be following her advice in the following chapter.
*Since the universe abounds with signs, may each of us pay attention to interpret their significance.
My sincere appreciation for reading this far.

Eva’s Byte #435 – Subtleties
In my neck of New England, the subtleties of autumn are kicking out the summer jams:
Along my daily walks, I’ve come across several bird feathers scattered here and there. Apparently, molting generally occurs between late summer and early fall.
Landscapers have mulched the shrubbery beds.
There are mesh bags of cinnamon-scented pine cones for sale in the florist section of the supermarket, reminding me to pick up a couple of bags to replenish those in my decorative wicker baskets.
My local retailer has loaded the shelves with autumn-scented aromatic diffuser refills. Due to the rapid-changing seasonal themes, I’ve stockpiled apple-cinnamon—one of my favorite seasonal scents.
My favorite of the four seasons, I can’t wait for the crisp days of autumn to make inroads to kick out the jams of hurricanes Franklin and Idalia, who’ve made their humidity known.
In the capacity of a writer, I’m blazing subtle inroads along my Contemporary work in progress, drafting chapter 39 (535 words thus far).
*May each of us enjoy the subtle transitions of nature.

Eva’s Byte #461 – March-ing On
Daylight saving time begins on Sunday, March 10, 2024 at 2 a.m., when clocks spring ahead one hour. Therefore, sunrise and sunset will occur one hour later, allowing for more light in the evening.
I can appreciate more natural light while driving later in the day. With ample time before darkness descends, I won’t have to feel pressured to beat the clock to get my late afternoon walk in.
An early riser, I’m already in tune to early reminders of Spring as February rounds the bend to an end. I’ve heard the cacophony of birds singing outside my office window.
I’ll be giving a listen for amphibious peepers in chorus out back in the wetlands my dining room window faces.
In the capacity of a writer, I’m marching to the tune of drafting chapter 52 (945 words thus far) along my Contemporary work in progress.
*May each of us reap the benefits of more daylight hours as the season of Spring approaches.
