2022 Harvest @ Monday Creek |
Pumpkins
Saturday greetings. What is more serene than an October morning? I don’t know, maybe a November morning. Fog along the creek, the hills in vibrant displays of golden hues, leaves falling, black walnuts dropping, squirrels flicking their tails – yeah, it’s October.
Last year, we had a bumper patch of pumpkins and gourds. The pumpkins were so big, we had to use a dolly to harvest them. This year, there is not one pumpkin in my patch. Ugh. I always start my seeds indoors in peat-pots, but my seeds didn't sprout (I am not sure why...)! It’s not October without a pumpkin. Hesitantly, I purchased several from a local farmer’s market, Logan Welding (old route 33). They have super nice pumpkins of all sizes and prices.

On another note, we continue to prepare for the Hocking Hills Book Fair at The Dairy Barn, Athens, December 9. If you launched a book in 2023, remember to
apply for the Ohioana Book Festival. Application deadline is November 15, 2023.
Find the application here.
Seems like CoVid has produced new authors/books; however, there also seems to be an increase in plagiarism. As an author, you may consider registering your work with the Library of Congress/Patent Office. However, this does not stop thieves, to our dismay. Here’s the link for more information. https://www.copyright.gov/ and https://www.loc.gov/legal/understanding-copyright/
In November, we will be launching new journals, historical fiction,
children’s literature, and more. Stay connected to peruse our new titles.
Thanks for following!
