I was on vacation last week, and it shows in my word count. 🙂 Monday through Wednesday I was at a little cabin up in the woods with my two daughters and our dog (poor hubby had to work. Like LOTS of work.). The girls and I hiked, had movie night, and just played around. […]
My first goal for the spring was to publish the second novel in my Foulweather Twins fantasy series. DONE! Chaos Calling is out now. One more book to go in the series. I’ve also thought of a possible spin-off series, but I’m not committed to it at this point. Fun choices for a writer — […]
It’s a stunner that April has arrived and it’s now time to dash into Spring like mad hares on the chase… I’m not giving in utterly to this feeling, with other parts of life to attend to as well. My cup is overflowing in what feels like all areas of life at the moment. Last […]
Yep. It’s been more than a month since I last posted here. Not sure why. I’ve definitely been busy with writing stuff — specifically edits to my novel Chaos Calling, which will be released this spring. I’m done with my edits on paper. I think it’s a good book. Ha! I don’t believe I can […]
Writing goals are so funny. My husband stopped trying to keep track of the stages of all my projects long ago….not for a reason of disinterest, but because there are so many STEPS to completing a book. When I cheer “I’m DONE!” or “Finished!” he assumes I’m about to hit the publish button….but it’s usually […]
Exciting times! Winter has arrived. 🙂 My goals for this round are very simple. Write 5,000 words of new fiction per week, and edit for two one-hour blocks each week. I’m hoping to exceed that editing goal, because I’d like to have Chaos Calling, the sequel to my fantasy novel Queen Witch, published by April. […]
The last month has been brutal at work, and my fiction writing has definitely suffered for it. I just completed one major project (for the quarter), but I’m the primary author on a report due in a couple of weeks, so I’ll likely be waking at night thinking about youth in the labor force, not […]
I’ve been participating in the Round of Words in 80 Days writing challenge for two full years now. A couple of weeks back I was considering taking the summer off of ROW, but I couldn’t quite get to that decision. As I thought it through, I realized I’d be a lot less productive if I […]
It’s already time to sum up my spring progress as the Round of Words in 80 Days challenge wraps up the spring round. Here were my goals for April through June: 1) Revise and publish Flight, the third Children of the Sidhe novella 2) Write an average of 500 words per day on the second […]
That’s a goal I’m going to live by in coming months. Life is full to brimming over, and J.R. needs some play time this summer, too! But the reason I write is because I LOVE IT. So I will keep on churning out the words, and no doubt keep surprising myself. I’m just laying off […]
