Happy Friday, folks! I’m not actually online this week at all. I’m taking a break! Outrageous notion, I know, but even rock-star rock-chick authors need complete downtime sometimes. Or so I’m told! 🙂

Back online next week… see you then, and rock on!

Here’s a little clip showing you how these amazing volunteers train for emergencies and rescue missions. Maybe this will inspire someone out there to join up and have a go?
