There are some stretches of life that burst at the seams with to-do lists, calendar items, and event after event after event. For me, this is one of those stretches. The next six weeks are bound to be incredibly hectic. I knew this was coming. The timing of several fairly major things was uncertain until […]

Mid-Week Update: A Day Late & Hours Short
It is bound to be a busy few days — from now through Sunday. I’m working a half-day tomorrow, and my mom-in-law is coming to play with the children in the morning while I work. Then all of the sibs on that side are coming for dinner Friday night. Saturday we’re throwing a birthday party […]
Sunday Update: Welcome to November
This is the time of year when the calendar goes from “Is nobody celebrating the holidays this year?” to “Good lord, some notice would have been nice!” At least in my family that’s the way it goes. My hubby and I are big on family. We like to make it to as many events as […]
Mid-Week Update: I’m Not, I Repeat NOT, Doing NaNo
NaNoWriMos are hearty souls, and somewhat insane. Tomorrow the madness begins for 2012. November is National Novel Writing Month — a month where crazy folks around the globe set a deranged goal of writing a 50,000 word novel in one month! That’s 1,667 words per day for all 30 days of the month. The truly […]
Sunday Update: My Foulweather Twins Series
That’s what I’ve been working on. I had a lot of writing time today, because I had the house to myself until almost three this afternoon. Crazy quiet. 🙂 Finishing and publishing my novel Queen Witch is my primary goal this round of ROW80. I’ve incorporated one beta’s edits, and the comments another gave me […]
Sunday Update: Finished an Outline
I hope it’s been a productive week for all of you writers out there. I mostly had a week off as I await more feedback from beta readers — and that’s a good thing. I’m not always the best at giving myself time off, so occasionally it’s nice to find myself without a project needing […]
Mid-Week Update: Taking Flight
Hello again, fellow ROWers. Hope it’s been a great week for you. I haven’t been up to much writing related, and probably won’t be until the weekend. At that point I’m going to incorporate the comments from one beta reader. I’ll probably be hearing from the others within the next week or so. I did […]
Sunday Update: Beta Readers, Attack!
I sent Queen Witch to three beta readers on Monday. One of them wrote me back with incredibly helpful comments on the first four chapters the very next day, and another returned the entire manuscript with her comments late last night. I am very excited to hear more about what the others think, pore through […]
Round of Words Goals Post
Update 1/30/14: This old post seems to be a big entry point to my blog. Click here for the most recent content. Hello there, and welcome to the final quarter of 2012! Can you believe it? The date is rockin’ my world these days…I can’t believe how time is flying. Anyway, on to my goals […]
Final ROW80 Check-In! Can You Believe That?!?
This is my first post in September. So, that’s not awesome. I haven’t known what to say. I’ve also been terrible about making rounds to any of my buddies’ blogs. To be honest, I still don’t feel like posting, but I know I’m going to get an email or two if I don’t pop my […]
