Hey! It's Monday! And, like most, there's been a glitch or two. Hoping the ISP tech being dispatched tomorrow can figure out why we're not getting the speed we're paying for or why it's been intermittently dropping. And not just the wifi. My desktop was disconnected for about 20 minutes this morning, even though the … Continue reading No one is perfect

Finding my way once again
Morning, everyone! I know, it's Tuesday. I didn't post yesterday. There was a reason. Any post I would've made would've been whiny, petulant, and a pity party. You see, for all my preaching about staying upbeat in the face of bad sales, etc, even I fall off the wagon and have a bad day. Yesterday … Continue reading Finding my way once again
The Immortal Goblin King
Hello. I can't really say good morning, because it's not. I learned of David Bowie's passing when I woke up this morning. The world has lost a creative genius, and the afterlife's ongoing party just had someone new grab the karaoke mic. I did not ever have the pleasure of meeting him. Nor did I … Continue reading The Immortal Goblin King
No, you don’t deserve that yet!
Good afternoon! Hope everyone had a great holiday! 2016 is on us, like it or not. Typically, it's a time to reflect on accomplishments, set goals for the year ahead of us. This is important for authors in a few ways. We constantly have to evaluate how we present ourselves to our readers, our publisher. … Continue reading No, you don’t deserve that yet!
And the wheel turns
Happy Winter Solstice, everyone! 'Wielder of Tiren' is moving forward. I spent most of Friday working on it. Put down over 3,000 new words, added a plot twist or two, and am about halfway with the first draft. It's a good feeling to know the wheels are turning again, the ideas are flowing. I know … Continue reading And the wheel turns
I know why I write…do you?
Hey! It's Monday! Must be blog post time! I was surprised last night. Went out and spent a day with friends and came home to it. My oldest daughter had snuck a photo of me during my signing event in November. There I was, behind my table, with a reader in front of me. She … Continue reading I know why I write…do you?
Being Thankful
Good morning! Sometimes, the one thing we lose sight of as authors is being thankful for what we have. As writers, we always look ahead. To the next chapter we're writing, to the next cover being shared with us, to the next release date. There's always something ahead of us to look forward to us, … Continue reading Being Thankful
Rising Above the Negative, Focusing on the Positive
Good morning! It's been an interesting week. Not in writing...didn't do much of that. But in fighting a good fight. Moving beyond those who condemn a genre solely because of what they perceive it's about. I'm working on a signing event at a newly opened bookstore. Until recently, when it was bought out, it was … Continue reading Rising Above the Negative, Focusing on the Positive
Acceptance vs. Approval
Good morning! I'm a little scattered today. Muse the Purrbot is hurt in some way, which makes me unhappy. Trip to the vet is happening in about an hour or so. We don't think it's serious, possibly a pulled muscle or such, but she hissed this weekend. Muse never does that. As authors, we tend … Continue reading Acceptance vs. Approval
The little things that matter
Good morning! I need more coffee. LOL. It's one of those mornings where I'm trying to get so much done that I'm thinking I need some sort of i.v. pole hooked up with my coffee machine. The road from the day you start writing until you hit the level of success you dream of is … Continue reading The little things that matter
