Medieval Novel 14
OK progress despite the cute little woodpeckers who keep sitting next to me and staring at me! I finished the ending of the medieval novel #14 where it introduces the heroine of book #15. So the book is now complete! I’ll be needing a few beta-readers for book 14 once I do a few more passes on it. Let me know if you’d be interested! Note that this is a full length novel and not a short story :). You might want to read book 1 in the series, Knowing Yourself, which is free everywhere, to see if you like my style first. I don’t tend to write “docu-drama” books – they tend to be lighter and gentler. Some people like that, some people don’t, and that’s OK. They’re authentic but they’re not full of seeping boils and mud-cakes for dinner and similar things that some people feel medieval novels should feature.

Writing Outside
Wed 7/27 – a full day for writing. It will be a challenge for my focus – there are just SO many cute baby birds out today! Including a precious little hummingbird who apparently thinks I’m his mom. Maybe I should write a fairy tale about a girl who can talk with birds wink. What are you guys working on today?

Yoga
A beautiful yoga routine on my back porch! This is a titmouse but there have also been cardinal babies with their dad, bunches of titmice, chickadees, downies, nuthatches, robins splashing in the birdbath, and a baby hummingbird who keeps coming over to stare at me. This is great for yoga but it’s going to make writing a real challenge :). #namaste

Evening meditation time
Evening meditation time. There’s so much to be grateful for. I now have several books ready to publish today. I enjoyed a great writing group mtg plus an art group mtg. So fortunate in how I can invest my time. #namaste

cleaning spree
Sun 7/24 – today is a cleaning spree for me! The house is generally a disaster and we have guests coming over. Let’s see if I can at least make a path through to the back porch where we’ll spend all our time. What are you guys up to today?

Blindsight
Blindsight – just how powerful is our subconscious mind, sensing things we have no idea of? Researchers find a number of blind people can subconsciously see, even when consciously they swear they see nothing at all. It opens the door to say we all have things we sense that we’re not aware of. The ability is already there. We’re just not aware of it … yet.
