Well, dang. Since my migraine wiped me out yesterday, I had been thinking that I would be kind to myself and slide words from the day before to yesterday to recover. I've done that a few times when things go astray, like when I was knocked down due to the COVID vaccines. Better to slide … Continue reading Streak broken
I’ve decided that my word for 2023 is going to be “consistency.” All ready I feel it to be a challenge. I’ve said before that I find it hard to be consistent. I’ve even been surprised at being able to blog daily for almost a year and a half now. Even the evening routine I … Continue reading Consistent thoughts
I am happy to report that the fledgling remained safe through the night. It had disappeared sometime in the evening and I was worried that a cat had gotten it. Bella had been inside, so I knew it wasn't her. But this morning, I heard the familiar cheeps outside and went to look. I found … Continue reading Leaving the nest
**Cue the Rocky music** I was down 5,700 words last night when I went to bed. I've written that much in a day before. I think my highest word count for non-fiction is 13,000 words in a day, but yes, that was 15 hours of straight writing. Someday, I might turn those words into a … Continue reading Making a comeback

We had a preliminary visit to start getting her setup for putting her audiobook up and discussing the business of writing. I had fun. I hope she did too. … Continue reading Back from Boise

Whatever helps us both sleep, right? … Continue reading Back in the running
Because you will choose how you define 2020 and your life.
Here we are, halfway through the first month of the last quarter of 2018. I can't believe this year is rapidly coming to an end. I was looking at my projects this weekend. I don't think I'll have any more publications this year, but there will be several novels released in 2019. I currently am … Continue reading Progress – October 15, 2018
I sometimes feel like I might be being a little too blunt with Rockin' Life. I know I'm assertive and I've had some people take that as aggression. I just can't understand why anyone would want to be "normal" or "average." What is that anyway? Who makes the benchmark on an ordinary, average life? Is … Continue reading Rockin’ Life page 5 has been posted
This was once again a reminder for me. Show up! You must show up for things that you want to do. You have to. If you want to do something but aren't showing up to do it, then you are just dreaming. Are you dreaming and not doing? Do you realize that if you're dreaming, … Continue reading Show up!
