Friday Funnies: I Can See The Finish Line!

Photo by Emrah Yazıcıoğlu : pexels.com/photo/a-man-posing-at-the-camera-12918268 with alterations by Dianne Burckhardt

Hello My Happy People,

As you might have guessed from the title and photo of this blog, I am about to FINALLY finish the first draft of Into the West: Family Ties. I just have two more scenes to write in the last chapter and it's done. I am not sure why this one was so difficult to write when all the other books in this serial just flowed out. Who knows? But I will be so glad to have this finished and out to all of you this summer.

Now I have a dilemma. I want to write The Touch next and have been doing loads of research on the topic to get it started, but I think I may have to do my autobiography first. I want to shop it to actual publishers and if I want to get it on the shelves by next October, I am already pressing my luck with that timeline with a publisher.

I have no problem putting it out as another self-published book, but I think this story is interesting enough that a publisher might pick it up. Either way, I think I need to get this written now so I will have it all ready to go by next year. My autobiography, Free Bad Haircuts With Each Craniotomy, will not be a novella. It will be a full novel with photos and excerpts from the journals I kept during all the surgeries. My general practioner from that time of my life has also agreed to write the foreward to explain my conditions in simple medical terms.

But first ... I need to finish the last two scenes of this last chapter of Into the West: Family ties! So time to get back to the keyboard! Well, I'm writing this on a keyboard on my desktop computer and I write the books on my laptop, so ... time to get back to the other keyboard!

Have a great weekend people! Now it's time for some jokes!!!

Enjoy,

Dianne

Q: Why did the DJ get disqualified from the race?

A: Because he kept changing tracks.

Q: Why did the police take the marathon runner to jail?

A: Because he resisted a rest.

Q: Did you hear about the fish that ran a marathon?

A: He knew he wouldn't win, but he still did it for the halibut.

Q: Did you hear about the lawyer with a torn ACL who won the marathon?

A: He could do it because he had power of a-torn-knee.

Q: What happens if you run behind a car?

A: You get exhausted.

Q: How do know if a runner you meet in a forest is crazy?

A: If you meet him on the psycho path.

Q: Why did the members of the gym always laugh when running on the treadmills?

A: Nevermind, you won’t get it. It is an inside running joke.

Q: Why did the snowman had to give up running?

A: Because he couldn’t warm up.

Q: Why don't you ever give money to charities that organize fundraising marathons?

A: Because they always just take your money and run.

And last but not least ...

Q: Where does the marathon in Helsinki end?

A: At the Finnish line.

Book Banter EP 71: Donna Edman Photographer

Hello My Happy People,

Today on Book banter with Dianne Burckhardt, Dianne is joined by the incredibly talented, Donna Edman. Donna is a professional photographer and visual storyteller working out of Fullerton, California. She shares how she started out her career in the corporate world and didn't find photography until later in life. The career she built as a photographer has brought great reviews from her clients as she helped them create more than just photo albums but legacies for generations to enjoy and cherish.

Donna's current project has grown beyond just a book, but is now also a museum exhibit. Women of Wisdom showcases the images and wisdom of 49 women between the ages of 50 and 95. Her mission with this project was to honor the beauty and wisdom of mature, everyday women. Each woman featured shares a bit of their own personal story as well as the advice they would give their 20-year-old selves.

From Donna's website:

"Anyone can click a camera. I spend extra time connecting with you because I want to tell your story, your vision. What is it that brings you joy? An aura of contentment can be elicited by a sweet thought of a child. A bold gaze can be conjured by sharing a vision for the future. Some people like to talk. Some people need to run, dance, or sit thoughtfully in silence. I capture the best images by allowing you to be who you truly are."

I am sure some of you have already figured out from the title and the photo what I did this morning, but check out the vlog for the full story. Obviously, I got back in or this would not be up. However, it did make for a stressful jump start to my morning.

I hope you day starts off better!

Friday Funnies: I Just Want to WRITE!

Hello My Happy People,

I have been feeling the stress lately of trying to keep up with everything. As a writer, I just really want to write most days, but being a one woman show and all the marketing and business aspects I have to deal with, it seems like the least amount of time in my budget is spent on actual writing.

It's a Catch-22 situation. I need to write books to be able to sell those books, but I need to market and network to get people to learn about me and be able to find my books to buy them so I can write more books that will also need to be marketed. All while keeping up the website and social media presence so people can find out about me and my books and find where to buy them ... makes me tired just thinking about it all.

Today I think we need jokes about writing! I know I can use the laugh myself. Have a great weekend people and cross your fingers that I will have some great book updates next week!

Now it's time for the jokes ...

Enjoy,

Dianne

A: Oh yes, quite a few, my car, my house, my saving bonds …

Q: What blood type do proofreaders have?

A: Type O.

Q: I heard you published your first book, what are you going to buy with the money?

A: I don't know ... a soda?

Q: How many authors does it take to change a light bulb?

A: I don't care what you think, I’m not changing anything!

Q. What do you get when you give a writer with a publication deadline?

A: A very clean house.

Q: What’s it like to be try to build a writing career?

A: Honestly, it’s difficult to put into words.

Q: What do you call an author who has health insurance?

A: Married.

Q: Do you think writers are tolerant people?

A: Oh yes, my alcohol tolerance has increased significantly since I became an author.

Q: How is editing and parenting a toddler the same?

A: In both cases you read the same damn book over and over and over.

Q: What is usually gross, bizarre, and could put you on an FBI watch list?

A: An author's internet browser history.

Add last but not least ...

Q: Can you tell me how to make a small fortune in publishing?

A: Sure! First you start with a large fortune…

Book Banter EP 70: Angela R. Hughes Interview

Hello My Happy People,Today I get to chat with historical epic fantasy author, Angela R. Hughes. Angela is based in Waco, Texas but part of her heart is firmly ensconced across the pond in the United Kingdom, Celtic Mythology, and Arthurian Legends. It has been her ambition to write stories that grip and inspire her readers, alluring them into myth and legend.

Angela believes in the power of storytelling and has always been inspired by mythologies and legends of the hero’s quest. She has been particularly drawn to Arthurian legend and its ancient roots that spanned into the Cymru world. She has studied Arthurian legend, as well as Celtic Mythology. While living in Ireland, she fell in love with the history and landscapes of England, Ireland, Wales, and Scotland.

Angela shares with me details about her fantasy series The Once and Future Chronicles which currently include; Book One: Elanor and the Song of the Bard, Book Two: Merlin and the Magic of Time, with Book Three: Arthur and the Golden Dragon coming soon.

At the end of the interview Angela reads from her most recent publication, Book Two: Merlin and the Magic of Time.You do NOT want to miss that!

Don't wait ... go listen now!You can find all of Angela's social media on her linktree account.,Angela's Linktree

Friday Funnies: Summer Days!

Hello My Happy People,

It is finally those days when the weather is more often hot and sunny and there are loads of things to do around town. It's time for pool parties, cookouts, and summer vacations. In our town there are winefests, bookfests, and street foodfests. There is just about something for anyone if you look hard enough.

I am working so hard on finishing up the last bit of Into the West: Family Ties, working on Book Banter with Dianne Burckhardt (our guest authors are just amazing!), and trying to have time with the hubbie. It's hard to find a good balance some days

I still want to look into creating an online magazine but that is low on my priority list right now. I need to look into the programs I would need to have to make it look good and easy for anyone online to access so it will be a work in progress for a while yet.

It's a holiday here in Germany so the hubbie is home. So far today the hubbie and I have already walked to the hardware store around the corner and picked up a few things for the plants on the patio, I have a few veggies and herbs growing. Then after dropping off that stuff, we walked to the grocery, bought way more than I had on my list, stopped in the air-conditioned Starbucks for a cold drink then walked home. Not a bad morning.

I plan to spend the rest of the day writing after I get this blog done. I hope all of you are having a wonderful day and an even better weekend with lots of good weather and loved ones with which to enjoy it.

And now it's time for the jokes ...

Enjoy,

Dianne

Book Banter EP 69: Diann Floyd Boehm

Hello My Happy People,

Today on Book Banter with Dianne Burckhardt, I am joined by Diann Floyd Boehm, an award-winning, international author of children’s books and young adult historical fiction.

Diann writes books to inspire her readers to like themselves, to be kind, and to embrace their imagination! Her YouTube Channel, Diann’s Story Garden, lets children hear different authors reading their own children's books. Diann is also involved in various humanitarian projects with multiple organizations.

We midwest women found out we had a lot of common. Besides both being authors and podcasters, Diann was born in Tulsa, Oklahoma (where my father was born), but the family moved to Texas when she was about 18 months old. Diann is a wife and mother of three adult children and one grandson. She has traveled extensively to many parts of the world (another common ground for us) and has lived in the Philippines and Dubai. She and her husband currently reside in Austin, Texas.

We had a lot of fun with this interview and I think you are going to love listening to it, so don't wait ... go listen now.
