Arlyn’s complication
Every time I think about Arlyn's story, a little chill goes through me. Although, I do wonder if I've made a mistake. In reviewing what I know about Arlyn and trying to discover a good starting point, I realized that I have two small issues. The first is that Tangled Magic and Walk the Path … Continue reading Arlyn’s complication

Back to a backstory
I have a little secret. Well, I guess I won’t after this (grin!). One of my all-time favorite characters is Arlyn from my Sacred Knight series. If you haven’t read the series, he’s Steigan’s mentor. I won’t say anything more there. Arlyn started off as a very simple character just meant to start Steigan on … Continue reading Back to a backstory

Grapefruit
This time of year, I always start to crave grapefruit. I've fallen into a habit of getting some writing done and then sitting down to enjoy my grapefruit before I wind down for the evening. At least until a couple of days ago. I've been out of grapefruit for several days and I forgot to … Continue reading Grapefruit

Lean back, tip head down
Everything I've tried to write tonight has turned to mud in my hands (so to speak). I give up. So, I'm going to leave this here and get on with my evening. Instead of fighting the nature of the day which has left me feeling immobile, I'll just lean into it. Cheers.

The height of clouds
The stars felt distant tonight. The air is cold, but not as crispy clean as usual. Granted, that could be the gagging smell of someone's venting dryer. The scent always makes my throat close up and my eyes feel swollen. Whatever they (whoever they are in my neighborhood) use (whatever it is), they use too … Continue reading The height of clouds

Unfinished
I went back through several unfinished blog posts that I have. I have about 15 of them. I was really hoping I’d have something which I could finish and use for tonight. Nope. While some of them are truly just rambling, some are just half baked. Some are outdated. Others I have clearly left behind. … Continue reading Unfinished

Sleep energy
Today has ended up to be a lazy day. Oh, I had things to do, but I just couldn’t get to them. I did some reading, but I kept falling asleep, despite getting enough sleep last night. I finally gave in and went to take a nap. Now Merlin is telling me that he wants … Continue reading Sleep energy

Taking me back
I love watching the stars. Granted, right now the nights are a little cold to stay out for too long. That doesn’t stop me from trying. My dad and I used to go and stand outside in our long driveway. We’d face the fields but look up at the stars. He’d point out a few … Continue reading Taking me back

Why I like to write into the dark
Writing into the dark... discovery writer... pantster.... Lots of ways to describe a writer who just writes. No outlines. No character sketches. Just writing. I have always done this. I've tried to plot and design characters and regulate how things come out on the page. It just isn't me. I get bored with stories quickly … Continue reading Why I like to write into the dark
