I had them, for this past weekend. The plan was to sleep in, then go to the flooring store where we purchased our wood flooring for the living room/dining room two years ago, and talk to them about having the bedrooms and kitchen done to match. We love our wood floors! It’s the best thingContinue reading “The Best Laid Plans”

Not for the faint of wrist
I’m three chapters in to my newest novel, completely hand written. My wrist is killing me, my fingers are sore, but you know what? I’m okay with it. Honestly, my wrist stops hurting if I just stop writing and go do something else for about twenty minutes. My fingers are getting used to it, soContinue reading “Not for the faint of wrist”
There will be Rum
The sun’s out today ! Like it was yesterday, and is going to be tomorrow and Sunday. Glorious blue skies and sunshine! Okay, so it is Spring, but around here you never know what you’re gonna get this time of year, and typically your sunny days are Monday through Friday, almost never on the weekend.Continue reading “There will be Rum”
WooT!
Well, I did it ! I manage the walk, even came across the finish line ahead of the majority – not that it was a race or anything, of course. What a great day that was. Not only did we have a fantastic weekend of sunshine and perfect weather, but then the Walk to EmpowerContinue reading “WooT!”
Walkies!
So this Sunday, Mother’s Day May 9th, is my cancer walk – raising money for Walk to Empower, which benefits women diagnosed with breast cancer, offering them assistance, guidance, and a great source of emotional support. Today, I’m at home with a touch of “something” that flattened me out – but I stayed home fromContinue reading “Walkies!”
Luddites Unite!
Okay, so I’m not technically a dyed-in-the-wool Luddite, since clearly you’re reading this note on a blog, on the interwebs, and not scratched into a cave wall with a stone. But I’m one week into my experiment – which if you recall was to take a novel I’d just finished the first draft of, andContinue reading “Luddites Unite!”
ChchchchChanges!
Hold on to your butts, I’m dusting and cleaning in here, so things might look a little odd for a couple of days. Then we’ll return you to your regular blog – thank you for your patience! Remember to tip your waitress.
hot off the presses
So I’ve just completed a novel called The Legend of Darkness and Light. It’s not like the others in that — frankly — this was a mental writing vacation for me. This story is a raucous, balls-to-the-wall, no-holds-barred, cliché-ridden, adrenaline-pumping, goof-fest. Think Indiana Jones meets Uncharted. A treasure hunting adventure, with all the right trappings.Continue reading “hot off the presses”
the status of the apparatus
Aka: Wazzup? So lots of stuff’s been happenin’ lately, some of which I’ll mention, some of which will have to wait. On the heels of Smashwords’ announcement of a new ISBN plan, I went ahead and put a number on both Ether and In The Time Of Dying, listing myself as the publisher, ‘natch. ThoseContinue reading “the status of the apparatus”
sometimes less is fewer
I’m not perfect (gasp) when it comes to proper grammar usage, few of us are. But as a writer who invites the public to read her words, I strive to be as good as I can be, and to get better all the time. My oldest sister is an English teacher by trade, and togetherContinue reading “sometimes less is fewer”
