No luck for the eclipse last night (of course!). It was too low near the horizon and there were thick thunderstorm clouds off to the east. So, no luck for us. Today I worked on Stonesinger and got through edits. Tomorrow I will work on covers. Then it'll be ready to go. After that, Kevin … Continue reading When the brain hits a wall
Sneaky little critical voice nearly got me today. I was working along on Siva's story when I started to see (*gasp*) a plot hole. I knew it would be something I'd have to adjust for or completely fix. I was opting for adjusting, but I didn't see how I was going to be able to … Continue reading Book almost lost
"I really loved this trilogy!" That's the quote from my first reader when she sent corrections back to me for the last book in the Stonecharmer series. I'm glad she enjoyed series. I'm glad to have someone catching my right brain writing errors. Apparently I don't fully re-read sentences when I re-write them. Imagine that. … Continue reading First reader has finished the trilogy
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…
On Tuesday, I'd done a lot of painting but hadn't gotten much finished. Today I worked at finishing several pieces. I got 5 new ACEO's finished and started 3 more. I almost kicked my Siva novel to the curb (at least temporarily). It started falling apart on my and my critical voice was jumping all … Continue reading Tinkering and adjustments
Today's been a whole bunch of running around. Best thing about it though is that I started a new Fenrir story before I started my many trips out of the house today. I can't wait to see where this story goes. But it might have to wait until tomorrow. Yes, a squirrel pulled out a … Continue reading The squirrel pulled out a ray gun
My Kickstarter campaign for the Stonecharmer trilogy is 65% funded and we have 10 days to go. Come on, people. We can do this. If you don't know anything about Kickstarter, it's a crowdfunding site for creators to get their projects out by lots of people giving a little. I have personally backed several projects … Continue reading Meet some characters from Stonecharmer

Today, I finished the cover for the short story. art © Natalia Siverina, Bblood, & Vanessa Gifford This story is about a magesmith, someone licensed to work the Thyst into magical items, whose shop is invaded by three miners. Each … Continue reading Stonecharmer short story
I recently signed up for a lifetime subscription on a course package offered by Dean Wesley Smith on Teachable. Sometimes I just need reminders on my writing and I love the way Dean phrases things. He's blunt and honest. Don't expect warm fuzzies. I like that. It's an eye-to-eye level approach and I know it … Continue reading A Wise Friend
The last few weeks have seemed like "whack a mole." Every time I get one of the little buggers back in the ground, something else pops up. I guess that's the fun and adventures in space and time. For you Loki fans, I have been getting some done on the 7th novella. Okay, when it … Continue reading Palladium – Chapter 3
