To editing. I finished Shadow Walker! I’m so proud that my first dual-POV novel is complete. This wolf and witch tale was a stretch of my writing habits and skills as I outlined more than usual to keep an eye on the balance of perspectives while creating this new world and magic system. After I […]

And looking ahead. I have two chapters left to write for Shadow Walker. Two! I’m so excited that this manuscript is almost done. I know generally what happens in these two chapters and just need to sit down and write it already. I already wrote the last chapter and a short epilogue, so I just […]

Since I’m writing a dual POV story for the first time. My writing life is back in full swing and I’m so excited by the progress I’m making on Shadow Walker. This is the first book I’m writing consistently in two POVs and it’s been a good stretch of my writing skills and planning process. […]

And with it, rebirth. The world is getting greener, my plants are budding and flowering, and my pup and I are enjoying consistent walks again now that the temps are better. Our family spring break trip to Yosemite National Park was a combination of truly awe-inspiring views, nice hikes, undesirable rain and a cold virus knocking […]

To return to creativity. I finished my quick review/edit of the Dreamcatcher series and it’s time to get creative again. I have a few scenes from last April with new characters in a new world. It’s a bit witchy and werewolfy and I’m hoping it will be great fun to plot and write. I’ve realized […]

Is just as important as writing. Right now, I need to take some time to brainstorm and daydream about the final chapters of Red Hour. I’m so close but not getting over that finish line. I wrote the ending a year ago, but there is a gap before those final scenes. I need to fill […]

And shift gears. Hurrah! I did it! I went through the entire four-book Dreamcatcher series and mapped out the chapters—what happens, what is accomplished for the whole story or for character development, log wordcount and break up long chapters, etc. I smoothed things out and edited small things here and there. When I got to […]

Can spark creativity. Thankfully, I have been able to sustain my writing habits and I finished restructuring Dreamkeeper (Dreamcatcher book 3). Yay! I’m going to put it away for several months, so that when I read it again, I will have fresh perspective. This draft works much better than the last one, but I’m not […]

Makes me determined to sustain it. I’ve been actively restructuring Dreamkeeper (book no3 in the Dreamcatcher series) to make sure the fantasy plot is progressing at a good pace alongside the family drama plot. I’m not sure I’m there yet, but this draft is a huge improvement over the last one, where the family drama […]

Can help my creativity. I was really excited to jump into edits of Dreamweaver (book no2 of 4 of my Dreamcatcher series) but… I lost some steam. So I opened up Red Hour and wrote a few scenes I had skipped over when I originally drafted it. You know, that one action scene in the […]
