Remember last Saturday’s trip to the ER? Well, a nice gentleman sitting in the waiting room with pneumonia passed on the joy, and I’ve been sick as a dog since Sunday. So we’re still right where we were last Saturday … Continue reading →
Due to a day-long trip to the ER for an exacerbation of my chronic back pain, I’m running late on this. Not much has changed since last week. I’m still on the final read-through of SwanSong, which is due for … Continue reading →

Things are moving along well. I’ve finished the final (and totally unnecessary except to make my Internal OCD Self happy) read-through of Wishes in a Bottle. So that’ll be off to Eeva Lancaster of The Book Khaleesi to be formatted for … Continue reading →
This week’s writing plan is the same as last week’s: I’m doing one last (I swear!) read-through of Wishes in a Bottle, doing important things like moving commas around. Actually it’s been through two rounds of beta reading, and to … Continue reading →
This week’s writing plan is very simple. I’m doing one last (I swear!) read-through of Wishes in a Bottle, doing important things like moving commas around. Actually it’s been through two rounds of beta reading, and to a proofreader/copy editor … Continue reading →
National Novel Writing Month WINNER!!! And I even survived… barely. I’m still pretty wiped out. What surprises me is that I got 50k words without having to switch manuscripts. I’d rather expected I’d have to, because I seriously went into … Continue reading →
National Novel Writing Month Well, I’m still writing! Really there’s not much change in the plan for this week: write, write, write, and then write some more. I’m a bit ahead of schedule at almost 30,000 words. The NaNo chart … Continue reading →
National Novel Writing Month So far, all is going well. I’m writing away.. I’m a teensy bit behind schedule with NaNo because I missed a day of writing back on Monday due to not feeling well, but I was already … Continue reading →
National Novel Writing Month is HERE!!!! I started out National Novel Writing Month (NaNoWriMo) at our midnight kick-off in SecondLife… a bit hampered by DDOS service attacks on SecondLife servers, but eventually we were able to get in and hang … Continue reading →
NaNo is almost upon us! These last few days of November, I’ll be bringing my life down into “slow” mode… my schedule cleared, house in good shape, desk cleared, Scriviner project set up. I have my monthly housekeeping service scheduled … Continue reading →

The writing plan is still pretty much unchanged from last week. I’m When Darkness Falls, trying to get these major revisions finished and out to the second round of beta readers before November, so I can concentrate on something entirely … Continue reading →

I’m sorry, how did it get to September already??? Early in the week I’d decided to go through and write detailed synopses for each chapter in the Synopsis cards in Scrivener. In doing so, I realized I needed a few … Continue reading →

I did quite a bit of work this last week on characterization for When Darkness Falls. I’m expanding some of the major secondary characters, and shoring up descriptions and attitudes on the lower echelon vampires in the resident clan at … Continue reading →
Oy, I fell down on my weekly Writing Plan last month! There’s actually a reason for this. I fell into a depression over the constant rejection letters. I wrote about it in this post, When Disaster Strikes. However, I’m back … Continue reading →

Excitement!!! I had a literary agent ask for a partial (first 50 pages) of Wishes in a Bottle, the first book of my Wishes & Dreams paranormal romance series. In the end she declined to see more… but she seemed … Continue reading →
Excitement!!! This week’s excitement was the request for a FULL MANUSCRIPT of SwanSong, the first book in my Sons of the Desert series, from the literary agent who made my day a couple of weeks ago by asking for a … Continue reading →
