Well, today had kind of a rushed start. And, I felt like I was crawling through the day. The whole thing made me feel very uneasy. But, I woke up with an image in my head for that canvas I had swirled colors around on last night until I had nearly made mud. I wrote … Continue reading Short segments
I worked on the cover for the 9th Loki adventure last night and asked my youngest son for his opinion. I'm glad I did because what he came back to me with was unexpected and made me realize that I need to keep this cover for the next one. Brilliant! I haven't even started writing … Continue reading Five designs, no decision, and weeds
We are in the final hours of the Kickstarter campaign for my Stonecharmer trilogy and it's close to funding. I spent the morning working on Siva's story and filled in one of the chapters I had skipped earlier. Then I read a book (if you can call it that) that I've had on my shelf … Continue reading I’m thinking, I’m thinking…

While I was making the broccoli cheddar soup tonight, I decided to put on a YouTube video to listen to. The title of it is "How to Bend Reality to Your Will and Become Unstoppable." I found it a couple days ago while my brain was being a lefty and wanting to talk computers, so … Continue reading A little different
The community of Sun Falls is filled with strange people and creatures. Protective Mythology is my first short story set in this little homeowners community. I'm already at work on the second story in the series. I'm hoping that once I get this setting figured out a little better, I can actually write a short … Continue reading Protective Mythology
Mind-mapping and brainstorming with Scapple.

Lately, I've been doing this massive brainstorming … Continue reading Filling the Shelves
