It’s time to get back into a more normal rhythm with my days and weeks, but it’s proving a wee bit difficult. 🙂 I had two four-day weekends in a row over the holidays, and this week the cruel reality of a five-day stretch of work was unavoidable. I WILL find my rhythm in coming […]

There is more crazy to come. But I don’t have to tell you that. 🙂 I’m hearing lots of chatter from writers finishing up their NaNo 50,000 — if that’s you, way to go!! What a major accomplishment! My own writing has been progressing VERY slowly the past two weeks. I am about one-third of […]
