Last week I wrote only 7.6 words but again, there was a break between two books – and the Kickstarter work of completing the campaign, so two days went with that and brainstorming the next book. My yearly total is over 150K, though, so I’m not complaining! 😀 This week I’m off DayJob, so I […]

I’ve blogged at length about the differences between goals and dreams, but TLDR: goals are within your control, dreams are what you want but beyond your control.

And my next Kickstarter is live! Check it out, read the excerpts, grab the original novella for a buck or the whole series before it goes live at retailers – if you like ebooks, that is! 🙂 This will be a little longer than the previous one, because it’s new stuff and I want people […]

Ahem, well, since I’m so scatterbrained these days, I managed to screw this up and posted the first one one Monday early, but… Since the world is such a sad place these days, I’m going to restart posting random Happiness Is… vignettes every Monday. Unfortunately those are not for the visually impaired, and I apologize […]
