Second Tuesday?

Remember Tuesday where I didn’t get much done? Yeah, today is being like that again. Except right now I have no energy to even try to do anything. Ugh. Note the lack of an exclamation point. At some point, I must get enough energy to go write my words. I’ve reached my daily word goal … Continue reading Second Tuesday?

Still outlining

I’m still working on the outline for the first book in the three book series I’m working on. Since I’m reading the draft that I originally wrote a few years ago, it’s exciting to see what I was building. I’m dropping back into the story and I’m finding it fun to do this exploring. There’s … Continue reading Still outlining

Doggie spa day

Woke with the sunrise this morning. I did that intentionally. I know that if I open an eye in the morning and it’s dark, I don’t want to get up. My brain literally tells me that I need more sleep, even if my alarm is buzzing that I’ve had at least 7 and a half … Continue reading Doggie spa day

Wet sock

Spent time today writing and painting. I wish I could have done more. Truth be told, I’ve discovered a toxic voice in my life. I realized it two weeks ago. It’s got me a little disheartened at the moment. There’s nothing like finding someone you trust suddenly telling you in snippy little ways that you’re … Continue reading Wet sock

A rest day

I didn’t get much done today. When I had no idea where 9 a.m. to 11 a.m. went to, I decided that maybe I needed a rest day. I was awake, but I was sitting in bed looking at a sketchbook and thinking about drawing. I also tossed some tarot cards. I can’t believe that … Continue reading A rest day

Another task down

Another one of my priorities from my list is down. I’ve gotten the 8th Loki Adventure off to its first reader. Of course, that got me excited while I was setting up all the other tasks for that novella to go into publishing, I had to get started on a mockup cover to see what … Continue reading Another task down

Glove Quest – update

In my last post regarding Glove Quest, I mentioned that I’d report back when I had tried on the Thermasilk gloves I’d ordered to try on. Yeah, they were not successful. The small gloves fit my hands, but the color was white and I could see my skin right through them. By themselves, they didn’t … Continue reading Glove Quest – update

Better late

I’d hoped to have this book out last year. Then it became April of this year. Then July. Then September. Yeah, not all of it was me, but some of it was. At last, I just had to knuckle down on this book and get it out. I decided it was the best I could … Continue reading Better late

A day that went fast

It started early, as I mentioned yesterday. I had places to go and things to get done, which went well — better than expected actually. Then my son and I went grocery shopping. Glad to have that done for a week or so. Then I got back to work on my #2 item on my … Continue reading A day that went fast

The Stardust Collection

Still following the list of priorities I set for myself yesterday. I’d hoped to finish item #2 today, but it didn’t quite happen. Item #1, I’m happy to announce, did get finished yesterday and is now available. This spectacular set is a favorite at shows. Dragons, fantasy, magic, space travel, mystery, clues, defeating bullies, coming … Continue reading The Stardust Collection
