A Little About Me

So glad to have you join me here! I'm Miki Bennett and I'm the author of three women's fiction series: The Florida Keys Novels, Camping in High Heels and the Nauterians. My love affair with the beach and my lifelong experiences with camping were inspiration for my novels, where I like to bring relatable characters, real life adventures and a touch of humor to my readers. I also love to create art inspired by the novels and share my creations with the world.

I’m so excited about this cooler weather!

One reason is because it means “fire pit time”. I love sitting around the fire outside bundled in sweaters, a mug of tea in hand and maybe a few snacks while we watch the flames. It’s so relaxing and if it’s a bit too chilly, I get to wrap up in one of those snuggly blankets I’ve told you about. Love Fall weather!

What’s your favorite thing about Fall?

Whenever I dream up a new goal, like learning digital art or starting a new book series, the pathway to achieve it seems as abstract as one of Jackson Pollock's masterpieces. But that's the thing...something that may seem confusing to others makes perfect sense to some. How's that for getting deep on a Monday, huh?! Keep following those dreams my friend, you never know where they'll take you.

Do you have any new goals you are dreaming of?

So I have another question for everyone: Do you enjoy journal prompts? Do you use them to help you in your journal writing?

Personally I love journal prompts though most days I already know what I want to write when I get out my spiral notebook and favorite pen. I always start with my “Gratitude List” which I highly recommend for everyone. Then I love to write about what’s going on, things I got done, any thoughts or feelings that came up during the day and more. But then there are times that I see a journal prompt and I go in another direction.

Journal Prompts will, at times, get you think about a topic more deeply. This in turn will sometimes get you to see things in a totally differently light. Or you are able to release, on paper, some happy or hard feelings about a particular subject.

I’ve been sharing journal prompts with you but starting next week I’m going to try a new approach. I hope they help you in your journal writing!

Let me know your thoughts in the comments below. Plus you can answer my poll on Instagram Stories or Facebook Stories. Have a great day everyone!

Is it just me, or does our society seem to be moving at 100 miles per hour thanks to technology?

While that may be nice when it comes to getting our groceries delivered or things we ordered the very next day, sometimes I need to slow down. In order to do this, I set aside time each week to just turn my mind off every once in a while. I have several ways I like to do this: a trip to the beach, watching a good movie, sitting by the river with a good book, taking a walk downtown with my husband – these are just a few of my “getaways”.

Tell me, how do you slow down in this fast-paced world?

Can you believe it’s the weekend once again?

For some reason this week seemed to go by awfully fast. It was a busy week but I was mindful to still take it easy. I got projects done but at a much slower pace. Taking my time to work on things actually yielded more stuff done. Instead of trying to do a million things at once, I focused on one thing at a time. That’s a huge feat for me - just ask my family!

Now, as for the weekend, I have some fun and relaxing stuff planned: I’m writing and painting. Stick in a nap or two plus a few Netflix shows and you get how my weekend is shaping up.

How about you? Hope you have some fun plans for the weekend that also include self care for yourself.

How do you celebrate family?

Last week was my husband’s birthday and it was a great excuse to gather together, have some cake, laugh and just talk. But really we don’t need a reason - we love having get togethers whenever we can but a birthday celebration is the best - you know cake and ice cream??? Yummy!

But really it’s just the fact that we get together and take time to enjoy each other. It keeps us close and for that I’m really lucky to have such a close family. (Plus it gives me great ideas for my novels - LOL!).

How do you celebrate your family and/or friends?

Would you rather hike a mountain or lay on the beach?

So if you’ve been following me for a while you know the answer to the question for me - beach all the way! Now I’m not saying I’m anti-mountains at all! I love visiting the Smoky Mountains and the Rockies, especially the Grand Tetons. But the ocean always calls to me. So I guess I could say I would love to live near or on the beach and visit the mountains whenever I can.

So now how about you? The beach or mountains???
