I’ve written several posts here and they all seem to be “writing related”. So, I wanted to post something that ISN’T about writing. Well, not really.
My obsession with The Deadliest Catch seemed to be NOT writing related.
And it IS an obsession. When my husband and I are discussing the absence of the [...]
Poetry Hour!
Okay, so R.G. is dawg sick today…and I’m posting for her. Something you may not know about our sweet wunderkind is that before she started writing novels she was a talented poet and published lyricist–some are funny as hell and some will make you cry, she’s so good. I hijacked a poem she had on [...]
Nightmares
I don’t have a lot of nightmares, but when I do they are creepy. In fact, I rarely remember my dreams/nightmares at all. Maybe 10 a year. That’s it. And considering how active my imagination is when I’m awake, I think I’m grateful for the down time. Really.
One reoccurring nightmare is the one abut all [...]
Another In Between Post
Hmmm…this just might become a theme for me. What do you think? The past few Saturday’s have just become waaayyy to hectic for me. And yes, I know, I could write my post, like Friday’s, and have it automatically post at a certain time on Saturday. The problem with that, most of the time I [...]
Interupting your regularly scheduled writing blog…
to discuss the weather! Man, it is freaking hot here! And y’all know I like heat. Hell, I’m the one that wasn’t hot in Dallas. But three weeks with the heat index over 100, two of those weeks with the heat index 110 or more, is too damned much even for me. Like most [...]
Write What You Know? Are you SURE?
We’ve all heard it. “Write what you know.” (Crystal would say “Write what you know and research the rest.)
But do you REALLY want me to write what I know?
I mean, do you want me to write about some of the familial weirdness that I’ve experienced? I’ll tell you a secret. You [...]
Where did she come from?
I started writing a new WIP a few days ago. And from its inception, it’s felt different from my previous three. The Hero came to me first for one. I had a very clear visual of him right away, {and oh what a visual!} before I knew what his story would be. Usually I’m more [...]
Switched Idioms
So today is all about changing one letter in a famous saying…and seeing where that crazy thought leads you.
Where the rubber meets the toad.
Whatever floats your goat.
A pig fish is a small pond.
A stitch in lime.
Pull the slug.
An In Between Post
In between…as in, in between Saturday and Sunday. LOL I just finished up my first round of edits for one of my Samhain releases. It was torturous…but I know in the end it’ll be worth it. I’m not one of those people who get all upset when people rip my words to shreds. Well, as [...]
How tension is like morning sickness…
I outed myself this past week: I’m pregnant with child #4. (yay!)
Until the home test gave me a + however, I really just thought I was stressed. Tense. NERVOUS!
Because my book releases in 4 days, and my stomach’s been twisted in knots. I was waiting for contracts on the second book in this series (having [...]
