With some cozy mysteries and paranormal stories. In honor of spooky season, I am once again grabbing a library haul of mysteries, finishing some mystery ARCs, and reading a few mysteries and paranormal tales that I already have in my kindle library. Below is my list of October hopefuls. Hopefully they will all be winners, […]

Take time, I guess. The kids are settled into school and I’m getting into a groove of part-time work while still balancing all the adulting that needs to happen while the hubs works long hours 5-6 days a week. The item that has fallen to the wayside most often is writing/editing, but I am seeing […]

This might be a writing slump. Last week I got sucked into Dreamkeeper (book 3 of the Dreamcatcher series) but… I’m really just rereading a story I love because this book shares so much about Lincoln. My editing here is not a big investment because my writing group has only just begun to critique it, […]

Is better than nothing. I did some editing on Red Hour but I need to do more focused work on it and still need to edit the last few chapters of Dreamweaver. My writing group has started critiquing Dreamkeeper (Dreamcatcher book 3) and it is really fun to see them work their way through this […]

A new normal. I’m jumping into editing Red Hour and hoping for some beta readers for Shadow Walker. The canine writing assistant and I have been taking long walks in the neighborhood while I listen to audiobooks. Youngling has gotten into nature photography this past year and over the past several weeks, we have gone […]

And reenergizing as I wake. My writing group is currently reading the final chapters of Dreamweaver, book two of the Dreamcatcher series. As I began to prep for the next critique meeting, I decided to read to the end of the book to catch any last-minute edits and prep all the final chapters for submission, […]

But I’ll take what I can get. The weather is still fluctuating between hot and cold, but I’m taking advantage of the sunnier days and mostly warmer weather to get back into a routine of walking the canine writing assistant regularly and for longer stretches. Youngling and I have been hitting the trails at the […]

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 […]

It’s hot then cold. Two weeks ago, I was excited to only have two chapters left of Shadow Walker. I still have a chapter and a half to go though, because writing is sometimes like a fever. Hot one minute then cold the next. I wrote a few pages and then life hit. Illness cycling […]

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 […]
