Day 25
The 2015 A to Z Blogging Challenge
Many Sundry Things
Y is for Years Passing
*_*_*_*
As we reach Day 25 of the A to Z Blogging Challenge I can’t
help but realize the reflective nature of some of my posts. It’s only natural
as I’m a reflective person. Reflection is a constant in my life because I don’t
want to get ahead of myself.
I’ve a birthday coming up. It’s not one of the “milestone”
birthdays, but it is significant. On my birthday last year I realized I was
inside my five-year window for early retirement. The pension plan I’m in allows
for pensions to begin at fifty-nine and a half. So mathematically you
understand this birthday will put me into the four-year window of my target
date.
For the first time in my life I’m aware of the years of my
life passing. I see the changes in the people around me and realize those some
of those same changes are happening to me.
I’m not saying I think the changes are a bad thing. They
simply are. The years passing have brought me to this point. I’ve worked hard
toward a goal, that of full time writer, and only the passing of years can
bring that to fruition.
So what if I’ve got a few years under my belt? I can still
dance naked in the moonlight on a summer’s night if I so choose. The years
haven’t taken that from me. But what they’ve given me is the knowledge to put
on mosquito repellant first.
I think it’s an equitable trade.

Once again this year I have to do a little book promo along
the way. You won’t know about my books if I don’t tell you about them, right?
Kenzie Zahn is starting over as a single man. Left with few
immediate options, he accepts a friend’s invitation to visit and house sit.
It’s the perfect opportunity for Kenzie to put a little space between the past
and present while figuring out the best path for his future.
Mason Hall enjoys the carefree single life. He works hard,
plays a little harder, and doesn’t think much about settling down. The right
man will come along – or not – and he’s content to wait. A night out to enjoy a
little dancing leads to a hook-up with Kenzie, the kind of man Mason has only
ever fantasized about. Mason can’t let him get away.
Kenzie’s smitten. Mason is irresistible, but home is a
thousand miles away and a long-distance romance isn’t workable. A strange twist
of identity brings a linked past to light. Kenzie and Mason are brought to the
realization that even when Fate arranges a man’s destiny, he still has to take
a leap of faith, or lose out on love.
