Merlin’s new friend
My garden survived the wind and cold that came through yesterday and last night, but another one of my tomatoes snapped. I put my more dirt around it and told it to take root. We’ll see what happens. The one that snapped last weekend seems to be doing well, but yesterday was rough on it. … Continue reading Merlin’s new friend

Counting pages
I’ve been through a dilemma with Siva’s story. Aside from the fact that I burst into tears at the end of chapter 22 today while I was writing it (yes, the words I had written caught me by stark surprise), I feel as if I should’ve been done with it already. Now granted, this last … Continue reading Counting pages

Stonecharmer on pre-order
The ebooks for the Stonecharmer series is now available for pre-order. Right now, the series is set to start releasing on September 6, 2022. This will probably move up some after I get Kickstarter rewards out, but they will all be released very close together as they are set. Here are the series right now … Continue reading Stonecharmer on pre-order

Digging in the dirt
My garden is all planted. It’s been a long few days, but it’s done. I mean to take a picture today, but I forgot. Maybe tomorrow morning I’ll remember to take one. It’ll be interesting to watch it as it grows. I have a feeling it’s going to be a tangle of plants this year. … Continue reading Digging in the dirt

When the brain hits a wall
No luck for the eclipse last night (of course!). It was too low near the horizon and there were thick thunderstorm clouds off to the east. So, no luck for us. Today I worked on Stonesinger and got through edits. Tomorrow I will work on covers. Then it’ll be ready to go. After that, Kevin … Continue reading When the brain hits a wall

Garden coming along
I’m going to write super fast tonight because I want to get out to see the lunar eclipse. Of course, it’s Idaho, so there’s clouds. Good luck seeing the moon! We’re going to try anyway. I have spent a majority of the day outside working in my back yard. Kevin got it mowed again while … Continue reading Garden coming along

The things I don’t say
As expected, today was a busy day. My son was moving today and we had to take a trip. He drove his car and I drove my car. He started out before me while I tried to download a couple podcasts to listen to on the drive. Then, once I was in my car, I … Continue reading The things I don’t say

Reading
Today is one of those days where not much happened. Between helping my son this morning, I did some writing sessions. This afternoon I painted some. Overall, a very quiet day. Which is okay because I suspect tomorrow will be busy. So, it’s a good time to remind you that Let’s Make a Deal is … Continue reading Reading

Two books down
The three editions of Stonebreaker are done. They did, as I expected, take a bit less time than the first, but there were still difficulties. Plus, I had to make a few changes to Stonecharmer which I hadn’t noticed yesterday. You know what? Doing hardcovers are a chore. Okay, maybe not. It’s not really that … Continue reading Two books down

Kickstarter rewards on my plate
I’ve been working on the books for the Kickstarter rewards today. The first book is done in all three versions: ebook, paperback, and hardback. With luck, the others will come together even quicker now. Then all I have to do is the short stories. With luck, I’ll have everything done by Monday. That’s my goal … Continue reading Kickstarter rewards on my plate
