Happy Friday, Reader! 🌻

Friday Finds | 04-18-2025 | Announcements

I’ve decided to pair up my email list with the blog subscribers. I’m finding it hard to maintain two separate “Finds” lists. So, from now on, the Friday email will simply be a list of highlights from the blog post with appropriate links to remind you that the latest Friday Finds post is live.

Remember that you can subscribe to the blog in the sidebar or at the bottom of any page, and you will be notified whenever I share a new blog post. I’ve reached the point where I am paying for too many newsletter subscribers who do not open the email. I’ll be purging this list soon, so be sure you sign up on the blog. You don't want to miss anything.

I plan to use this ConvertKit email list to provide you with more timely notices. Occasionally, I have important news during the week that shouldn’t wait until the next Friday Finds post.

Thanks for your continuing support!

Here is what the new Friday Finds announcement email will look like.

Hello, Reader! 🌻

Whew, what a week! I had some fantastic spotlights and thoughtful reviews roll in, and yes—there were prizes (because who doesn’t love a little giveaway magic?). From time-traveling Highlanders, cute button tales, and heart-wrenching memoirs to an invaluable AI toolkit for authors, this week’s finds were all over the map—in the best possible way. Plus, I’ve got a breakfast casserole lineup that’ll make your weekend mornings shine, and a few sweet surprises tucked in there. (You know I love to keep things interesting.)

Let’s jump into this week’s Friday Finds and see what all the buzz is about!

PS. Any and all clicks on my website or my affiliate links are appreciated. No purchase necessary!

If you are a blog subscriber (long-time or new), let me know in the comments, and I’ll add your name to the next fun time drawing.
