Progress Friday

Hey peeps

If you're friend with me on Facebook, you'll have read my status update, as to how I actually punched myself in the face last night. I was pulling the second blanket up, but I pulled too hard and it was stuck, so I lost my grip and my fist came flying to crash into my nose. Now I know what it feels like to receive a knuckle sandwich - let me tell you it hurts like *beep!*

So, is that the only progress this week, me learning how to punch myself? Fortunately, no. I've been busy and runn...

Link Thursday: What Your Best Friend Won't Tell You

Hey peeps!

Back from Zombie-land today, finally! My insomnia had kicked in big time, and let me tell you this - it's impossible to function without sleep! Coffee helps, but nothing quite does the trick for your mind and body - and sanity! - like a few hours of night-time snoozing.

So, today's Thursday so it's Link post day. Browsing through my folders, I found this link, and it seemed quite fitting to me. This past week I reconnected with two of my besties - and these girls and I go back to our...

Random Thoughts' Monday: Trying to grasp...

...my life at the moment. It feels as if everything has spun from its axis since last week, and even today I still haven't stopped spinning like a supersonic top.

And my insomnia is back, so that could also be why I'm having trouble to settle, and why I prolly won't make much sense right now. :)

It's been a week today since all the hoopla for the book's release started. I've been a basket case of nerves, and I guess being a basket case of nerves is, well, bad for your nerves. I'm strangely euph...

Six Sentence Sunday - Walking The Edge: Snippet #4

[image error] Hey beautiful people

It's Sunday again, and I'm flying high today. Why? Well, Walking The Edge (Corpus Brides: Book One) was released on June 30! Not only that, but the first review has already come through, and the book has been described as "...the explosive debut novel of the Corpus Brides series by Zee Monodee. Shrouded in...

How I Saw The Characters of "Walking The Edge"

[image error] Hey peeps

I'm doing something a little different today. Initially this post should've come up on Wednesday, but with the release delay, I couldn't get this up (and have it make sense!) so today it supplants my usual Progress Friday deal.

I know a lot of writers physically 'template' their characters from a famous person/actor/mode...

Just an update...

Hey peeps

Sorry I've been offline since Monday. The reason is there have been some issues getting Walking The Edge up on time for the planned release. We've been trying to find a workaround, and should come to solution later today, or by tomorrow tops.

I apologise - especially to the folks with whom I'd booked promo for the current days when the book hasn't gone up for sale.

I'll let you all know when the book is up for sale, and btw, you're all invited to the new release date of June 30!

From Ma...

Random Thoughts' Monday: I confess, I'm an imperfect mum...

Hey peeps

Cannot wait - another few hours until Walking The Edge goes up live and for sale! But that's not my point today, at least, not now. :) The topic is me as an imperfect mother!

I guess you know I have 2 boys at home. My son is 8, and my stepson is 12. Both are going on 30 and of course, know everything better than me or their dad. And if you look at the pic right next, that's how they both see me. Every time they watch Dexter's Laboratory, the very-blonde, very energetic, very airhead-y...

Six Sentence Sunday - Walking The Edge: Snippet #3

Hey beautiful people!

For a while I thought I wouldn't be able to make it today - we've been without power since 8 AM today. Absolutely awful - stuck on a Sunday at home with no electricity!

But thank goodness I'm back in business.

So peeps, do you realise we're on the eve of Walking The Edge's release? Yup - tomorrow the book goes on sale at Noble Romance Publishing!

I'm totally stoked, and doubly so now to share another snippet with you. :) For the past 2 weeks, I've posted about Amelia, and t...

Progress Friday

Celebrating... because I just found out I've passed my last ever university paper! That means I'm at the gate to earn my degree, finally, after 7 looooong years of part-time study (and being a wife, a mum, a writer, and someone recovering from sucker-punch health blows!) None too proud of myself today - I guess I deserve that right now!

The other good news - I finally got back on my treadmill today. Did a measly 0.5 km but it's there, and it's more than I've done in weeks! I expected to feel t...
