When we arrived at Heritage Wine Cellars, we didn't know what to expect which is normal for a Harvest Host stay. However, that is not a bad thing.

I write, revise, edit, publish and then do it all over again and again and again. Then the formatting begins in KDP (Kindle Direct Publishing, Amazon’s publishing site for writers).

With prewriting, writers record ideas before they begin to feel the uncertainty of what to write; they have already begun their journeys to success.
