Welcome to The Monthly Chapter for May 2022. If you subscribe to the newsletter tan you already know I am still working on getting thing moved over from Wickedly Romance. My health issues have just been getting in the way. Things are starting to slow down though so maybe that will free up some of my time. Which in turn will allow me to get things done.
Almost every week this month there will be at least one review. There are Friday giveaways as well this month. All of those have been scheduled and are ready to go. I also want to o a big giveaway but that may not happen until the end of the month.
