I hope everyone’s had a suitably relaxing series of sun-soaked days at this point, full of BBQs, fireworks and toe-tickling sandy beaches. I think many people took some time off of work this week…I didn’t. I’m smack between two major releases for a survey I coordinate at the day job, and worked my tail off […]

Final ROW80 Update for Spring 2013
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 […]
Sunday Update: Re-balancing My Priorities
My last update was titled “Juggler is an Apt Description.” So of course now I have little to report. That doesn’t mean I dropped all the balls, but they seem to be hovering in an anti-gravity zone where not much occurs. Instead of 1,000 words a day, I’ve written about 1,500 words all week. But […]
Sunday Update: Back in the Groove
Yay! I’m finally hitting my stride on Chaos Calling again. I reworked my outline Friday night, and I’ve written 1,700 words so far this weekend. That’s pretty cool since I’ve had zero dedicated writing time. Just the iPad waiting for me on the dining room table, at the center of the domestic storm. I wrote […]
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 […]
Sunday Update: LOTS Going On!
Hello again. I can’t believe it’s another Sunday. No idea how long I have to type before the kids bust in on me, so I’ll get right to it. I feel like I’m split between a bunch of fronts right now. It doesn’t help that work is absorbing a lot of my energy, too. We’re […]
Mid-Week Update: Finally Checking In!
I know. I pretty much disappeared for the last three weeks. I’ve made occasional posts, but given no updates on writing progress. That’s because there hasn’t been much progress. I haven’t done a thorough review of the last two years, but this should go down as one of the longer stretches without writing progress since […]
Promotion, Production and Procrastinating
Hi there! I chose three p’s for the title today. I’m feeling a little Sunday morning spunky. So far on this bright day, my husband has made a delicious breakfast and built a big fort in the living room with the kids. I’ve done very little. Awesome. 🙂(Update, since I wrote this part an hour […]
Sunday Update: Ready to Rock
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 […]
Final ROW80 Update of 2012! Eek!
Alright guys. I don’t have long for this post. Life has blown up around my ears and I barely have a clear view of the door, which I fear I’ll never reach through all this muck. Yes, I’m being dramatic. But there’s also lots going on, and that mental space I need to finalize the […]
