Happy Mother's Day!

Life is meant to be lived. If you have to support yourself, you had bloody well better find some way that is going to be interesting. And you don’t do that by sitting around wandering about yourself ~ Katherine Hepburn

I thought I’d share a bit of matronly advice on Mother’s Day. I hope your having a good weekend.
What have you planned for the day or what special surprises did you get?

Trust your Intuition Day

Here’s to clear gut feelings that spare us emotions and saves us time ~ Jill Badonsky
If you’re like me, you know that being on your dream journey has just felt right in your gut. No matter what the odds are with “commercial success,” “accolades,” or anything else that goes with public status, it feels right that I am a writer and it’s what I’m meant to spend my “free time” doing (if you call getting up at 5 am to write everyday free time…LOL).
And the great thing about that for the most part is my husband’s support. Since I’ve returned from RainbowCon, my head has been into polishing the manuscript for The Higher Law. I work hard to balance writing, participating in the critique group so my writing improves, reading, promotion, household chores, and having fun! Our weekends have been filled visitors and birthday parties. So even then, I still haven’t felt like I’ve had the weekend to relax or catch up.
We had a couple of “escalated” conversations about my helping with chores. Although I do my best, I have to admit some dishes have sat undone and it’s taken me a few days to put away clean clothes. But I’m making progress on the manuscript and I’ve sold books. Like I’ve told my husband, my chore right now is to write and sell books. It’s a gut feeling telling me that’s where I need to spend my time.
The gut feeling helps me stick to my guns and keep going to fulfill this dream of mine. It helps me stand tall against things that take focus away from my ultimate goal, to write more books. (Of course, after those conversations, I took a few minutes to catch a few household chores).
What has your gut told you about your dream journey?

Quickly Blot Out the Nasty

The dog has an enviable mind; it remembers the nice things in life and quickly blots out the nasty - Barbara Woodhouse

Wouldn’t it be nice if we could easily forget the negative things in our lives? How much better things would be if we could easily forget the bad stuff that happens or the bad things people might say about our work. The irony of being a writer is that tension and contrast made for better stories.
Not all negativity is bad negativity though. I try to look forward to the feedback that my writing group provides on my submissions. I do admit, sometimes I think I’ve submitted a fabulous piece and then it gets torn to shreds by my colleagues. I’d rather have them look at it and poke holes in it before it gets rejected by someone else.
After all, without a little tension and conflict, the characters we fall in love with might be a little bit boring. And then what would we do about happily ever after?
How you turn negativity in your dream journey into positives?

Faithful Gardeners

Help us to be ever faithful gardeners of the spirit, who know that without darkness nothing comes to birth, and without light nothing flowers ~ Mary Sarton

What an amazing couple of weeks! Still on a high from RainbowCon, I am furiously working to complete the manuscript for my third novel, The Higher Law. Things are coming along, just not as quickly as I had hoped. I have added 60 - 80 pages to this manuscript, which has been a rarity for me. Usually I cut stuff in the later versions. It’s a result of what I learned at RainbowCon.
It’s been a busy week as well. Now it’s time to take a deep breath and enjoy my birthday this weekend.
What are you up to?
