And with the new year, I love to do resolutions. Usually I do wildly optimistic resolutions that fall (mostly) flat after a month. So this year, I’m going to do what I consider to be realistic resolutions. 1. I resolve to take care of myself. This sounds like it should be a no-brainer, but it’s …

(advent) Upcoming goodies!
I’m sorry, folks. I’ve been neglecting the blog this month, because I’m knee-deep in the Advent story for next month, and it’s NaNo, and yeah, that’s not an excuse, but there it is. However, I have some goodies coming up, and I wanted to let you know! First, I’ll be on Mitchell Plested’s Get …
(writing/process) Thoughts as we head towards NaNo
So, I’m working on my outline for the third Advent story for NaNoWriMo, since that’s that project that’s next on my list (and the story needs to be written), and I’m thinking about my writing process. And since we’re coming up to NaNo, I thought I would share my thoughts on process with you all. …
(writing) An update, only a little late
This week has not been good to most of my life, I’ll be honest. I’m in the last week before my Remicade treatment, the weather is playing havoc with my allergies, and it seems like every one around me is sick at work. The upshot? A migraine. Yeah, a migraine. But despite that, I’m …

(writing) Realizations
It’s been a week of those for me. Realizations that my almost 40-year-old body cannot exist on 3 hours of sleep and amazing amounts of caffeine and sugar. Realizations that it’s okay to say “No, I can’t do that tonight, because I’m exhausted.” Realizations that I don’t write like everyone else, and that’s okay. …
(writing) TGIF – seriously.
I should have remembered that Remicade weeks knock me for a loop. I”m sorry I didn’t have a review for you guys for Wednesday, but I was so exhausted Monday and Tuesday that I just barely did my minimum for writing. Between the Remicade and my allergies (which are just awful this year. I swear, …
(writing) The First Pendragon Casefiles is done!
Well, the rough draft is, anyways. I’m going to let it sit for a week while I sketch out the next book (different series – going for a paranormal romance next – first book of a 3-book series), and then I’m going to settle into revisions. But it’s done! And did I mention that …
