Since yesterday's blog, I've been considering what motivates me and what I need to get over a few hurdles. I know that seeing numbers increasing quickly inspires me. Little numbers or slow going frustrates me. I like to close my rings. Goal achieved trophies are cool, but little motivational "you did it, now keep going" … Continue reading Knowledge with gauges
A couple of days ago, I sent the first book in the trilogy I'd been writing the last few months to be read and proofed. Today I worked on aspects of the second book. Tomorrow, there's still minor touches I need to make in the third book. Then I can do the finalizing drafts of … Continue reading Quick update on trilogy
I'm writing this the day before Thanksgiving, but since I won't put out my next post until late tomorrow night, I wanted to wish all my U.S. readers a Happy Thanksgiving now. May you have a good day full of cheer. Okay, I wish that for everyone, whether you are in the U.S. or not. … Continue reading In all things
I received the comments back from my first reader today for 1-800-Lok8. I still haven't had a chance to read through them yet. I was heading out to Twin Falls when I got the text from my lovely sister-in-law, who is being the first reader for this book, said she was ready to send them … Continue reading Loki’s back & coming

I realized I needed to redo some of the back matter for this story, which led me to creating ads. That took me down a rabbit hole where I discovered a … Continue reading Thought I’d work on publishing

This week, WMG Publishing is offering 50% off all their classes this week. If you want to get … Continue reading Writers – never stop learning
Today has been a long day. I wouldn't have it any other way. I know I've been sitting at my computer since I got up today, but my logged time says that's I've only been "working" for 9 1/2 hours. At least tomorrow I should have an announcement to make. Not that you don't know … Continue reading Long day
I feel like I've been working on a lot of writing projects during late summer and early fall, but for a while it felt like nothing was actually getting done. I felt a bit stuck. But lately, I've been like a mad woman possessed and things are finally starting to break loose. I finished and … Continue reading Breaking loose
The courage to start and the willingness to try. How can those two elements expand your life?
Last year I gave a report for the 2017. I thought I'd do the same this year, just to wrap things up, even though I feel (as I'm writing this sentence) that it won't be nearly as impressive as last year's post. I did a lot in 2017, considering it wasn't a very good year … Continue reading Progress – 2018 official
