‘Tude – Pick Yours Wisely

Happy weekend, everyone! For me, this week it couldn’t get here fast enough. Between sports for the kiddos, homework, and homework, and more homework, we all need some time to relax. And, as tends to happen when things wind down, reflect.FISH


Today’s post is about choosing our attitudes, and it’s been stuck in my craw for a few days now. No, I’m not jumping up on my soapbox to vent. Rather, I’m going to offer everyone a friendly piece of advice I picked up from a book I read some time back: FISH!...

Determined Heart

TGIF, everyone!


I awoke this morning with a determined heart–my WIP is mere pages from having its first full draft complete, and by golly it will be finished before the weekend is through. But before I get to the weekend, I intend to make the most of today. And I encourage you to do the same.


We only live once, so let’s do it to the fullest. And that all starts today. This minute. This very second.


I’ve met so many wonderful people on my writing journey–new authors, first-time writers, long-time...

It’s Kristan Higgins!

Ok everyone, I’m sure you’re getting rather sick to death of me posting updates on blog tours for my debut novel, so I have great news: we’ve got a guest author on Indiana Wonderer today. And not just any author–it’s RWA’s 2013 keynote speaker, the lovely and extremely talented Kristan Higgins!


If you haven’t yet discovered Kristan, get out from that rock you’ve been living under and make a beeline to your nearest bookstore or e-book app. Her writing is humorous yet rich, relatable yet unique....
