I’ve been avoiding my major writing project for more than a week now. Shield is two-thirds written, and it’s pretty typical of me to get stuck about here. So wish me courage and a little get-up-and-go on that one. 🙂 Does that mean I haven’t been writing? lol. No! I’ve been writing plenty. I’ve started […]

ROW80 Round Two Goals
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 […]
Mid-Week Update: Good Week So Far

Sunday Update: Nearly There! (On One More Book)

Mid-Week Update: Taking Joy in the Process
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 […]
Mid-Week Update: Fresh from Vacation
My little family had such a nice couple of days on the Oregon coast last weekend. The weather was amazing. Camping at the coast in May would usually mean at least one rain storm and in general cold and unpredictable weather, which is why we stayed in a yurt (a semi-permanent structure that keeps out all […]
