Garden work continues

The ground for my garden is almost ready. I spend more time out there today, ran into some big worms, and dug up a lot of weeds. I think I’m finally getting to the heart of the morning glory that someone planted like forty-fifty years ago or so. Yes, it made for a pretty fence … Continue reading Garden work continues

First reader has finished the trilogy

“I really loved this trilogy!” That’s the quote from my first reader when she sent corrections back to me for the last book in the Stonecharmer series. I’m glad she enjoyed series. I’m glad to have someone catching my right brain writing errors. Apparently I don’t fully re-read sentences when I re-write them. Imagine that. … Continue reading First reader has finished the trilogy

Keeping up the streak

A quick blog tonight because it’s late and I want to keep up the streak of blogging daily. It’s around day 253 or something like that. Correction: it’s 256. 🙂 I went to see a play this evening. It ended up being sort of a rush deal because of other things that had been going … Continue reading Keeping up the streak

Balance vs harmony

Today, dividing my time, not overworking myself, and leaving projects unfinished was a challenge. I told you I have problems with that. I wrote the blurbs for the Stonecharmer series. That was fun. Then I spent an hour in the garden. That was fun until I realized I’d gone too long. I’d even set a … Continue reading Balance vs harmony

Kickstarter finished

My Kickstarter finalized today, so I’ve been busy doing all the prep work for fulfillment, like sending out surveys. Since it’s my first one, I also built my own spreadsheet so that I can compare it to theirs and figure out the best way to deal with all the information they send. It’s very interesting … Continue reading Kickstarter finished

Covers and titles

I spent this evening working on mockups covers for my Quanst the Mouse story. The Kickstarter reached the first stretch goal to unlock this story. When I last looked at it, it still had 15 hours to go. It’ll end in what will be tomorrow, late morning for me. I don’t yet have the final … Continue reading Covers and titles

And so the garden begins

As you can see from the graphic above, the Stonecharmer Kickstarter campaign funded this morning. We’re well on our way to the 1st stretch goal. At the moment of me writing this, there’s just a little over 35 hours to go. I was writing today when I heard that the campaign funded. I made a … Continue reading And so the garden begins

I’m thinking, I’m thinking…

We are in the final hours of the Kickstarter campaign for my Stonecharmer trilogy and it’s close to funding. I spent the morning working on Siva’s story and filled in one of the chapters I had skipped earlier. Then I read a book (if you can call it that) that I’ve had on my shelf … Continue reading I’m thinking, I’m thinking…

Artist Cards now in Kickstarter

I have a few neat things to tell you about today. I’ve added ACEO’s to the Kickstarter. You can now get some 2022 ACEO’s through the Kickstarter. Ordering them when you’ve pledged for an electronic book (ebook) needs to be done through the additional bonus box at the bottom of the pledge. For people in … Continue reading Artist Cards now in Kickstarter

Tinkering and adjustments

On Tuesday, I’d done a lot of painting but hadn’t gotten much finished. Today I worked at finishing several pieces. I got 5 new ACEO’s finished and started 3 more. I almost kicked my Siva novel to the curb (at least temporarily). It started falling apart on my and my critical voice was jumping all … Continue reading Tinkering and adjustments
