The Melting Writer
Summertime in many parts of the world just spells H-O-T. Living in the southeastern United States, I have had my share of three digit temperatures, droughts, floods, storms, and more humidity than is humanly possible to endure without growing gills.
This summer is shaping up to be no exception. The temperatures are flirting with the mercury threatening triple digits, and we aren't even to August yet.
Commiserate with me as I share, that where I write is miserably hot during even moderately warm weather. The time of day that I set aside for writing is, as a rule, during the summer becomes one of the times of day that any reasonable human being should be neck deep in water or locked in a freezer.
So, how do I keep my writing goals and productivity up? I shift my writing times. Instead of afternoon marathon sessions, I do late night and early morning write-ins. I plot and plan when it is hot, usually as I sit by the creek or my child's swimming pool.
I stand with you in solidarity brothers and sisters of the sweltering heat. We can do this, just bring lots of iced coffee.

Maiden's Peak is Live!
Happy Release Day! Or launch day if you like that wording better.
I hope everyone is enjoying their pre-orders and that everyone who hasn't ordered their copy yet has a chance to do so.
If you are looking for a weekend read or something to do at that cookout that you would rather not be at, you know the one, then snag a copy of Maiden's Peak for only 0.99 cents.
Have a great weekend and safe holidays if this is a holiday weekend for you.

Release Day is Approaching!
As weird as it seems the date that Maiden's Peak launches is just around the corner. I have been so busy with other projects that the time just got away from me.
I hope you are as excited for this new book as I am.
PS: I have a new book in the Angels and Demons series that I am slating to be out at the end of the year, so stay tuned for that!
Check out the book here! Maiden's Peak
