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 ready to wait. I’m querying agents for Seeds of Power and it’s exciting to be finally putting myself out there! I know it takes a long time to hear back (if at all) but I am ready to wait. I don’t need to see my book published right now and I believe a literary […]

Despite summer distractions! I’m writing new scenes for a book I actually want to publish someday instead of just random things. I’m so happy to be productive again. While youngling was at morning nature camp, I got a little me time in and opened up Red Hour. I started from the beginning, making minor edits, […]
