(advent) Only a little late!

I’m sorry, but I finally, FINALLY got the breakthrough I needed!  You guys… I KNOW HOW THE STORY ENDS! Tomorrow, more writing! <><><><><><><><> “Am I late?” Lai rushed into the kitchen, the door banging behind her. “I’m so sorry!” she said breathlessly. “I had a conference call run long!” “You’re fine,” Molly said, setting another …

(advent) December 6 – and I’m finally decorating!

Yeah, I know, I normally decorate the weekend after Thanksgiving. It’s been one of those years. My cards aren’t done yet either. That’s tomorrow, I think. <><><><><><><><><> Bang! The slamming of the front door jolted Drew from sleep. He lay there a moment longer, dazed, wondering what he’d heard. Then heavy footsteps clomped across the …

(advent) Sorry for the delay!

Bad Crohn’s evening. 🙁  Sorry, guys. <><><><> “So wait a minute,” Sue Elder said, looking over at Molly. All three of the Terrible Trio had descended on the tea shop that afternoon, wanting to hear the story for themselves.

(advent) December 4 – The point where you guys will either love this – or hate it.

(advent) – December 2nd, a little late in the day

I don’t even have my Christmas tree up.  But I went ghost-hunting last night and house-hunting today, and so I’m a little behind.  Story of my life. But!  Here we go!  Day 2! <><><><><><><> “Saint Michael’s Church, Father Christopher speaking.” The priest’s deep voice rumbled through the speaker, easily heard even over the occasional static, …

(advent) Saturday, December 1 – a new Schrodinger/Molly story!

Yes, I know, it’s after 2 pm, but it’s still the 1st!  I woke up with a lovely gluten hangover, and had to go right out and go to my nutritionist’s appointment.  I came home and crashed again, but I have too much to do today to sleep all day (with the snow falling, it’s …

Starting the marathon…

This weekend, with the exception of Sunday, when I have Curia and then my Dad’s birthday, all I am doing is writing.  I’m up to 12k on NaNo, but I’m so far behind, and I have to catch up! I’m having issues this year, because I’m writing without an outline.  I know where I want …

“So that’s your everyday coronet?”

Passed 11k on the new Schrodinger story today, and I hope it continues to be as fun as I think it is!  I’m now officially out of outline (eek!) so we’ll see.  I have nothing planned for Saturday but hanging out with Kate and Brian and writing.  So hopefully I can crank out oh, I …
