A new month is here and I’m going to triple publish! The two books that I’ve help design, format, and edit are in the final week and I can taste the publishing button. There’s a few cover design changes and the final proof that only happens before the printing begins. The third book is oneContinue reading “Triple Publishing Month!”

All Nighter
The all nighter is finally over and I felt like I was in school studying for a final. Friday night approached and I was determined to return the final book review to my fellow writers. What I really wanted to do was to have a good dinner, rest, and relax after a long week. IContinue reading “All Nighter”
Love Notes
I was getting ready for today’s prompt when something wonderful happened. My forgetful nature of setting things down and forgetting them gave me a surprise. I hid a Valentine’s Day card for my husband in one of the books I’m reading, and it made me smile. I thought, “What a great surprise to give someone,Continue reading “Love Notes”
Publishing Race
Crunch time is here for my two authors and I’m feeling the deadline pressure. There are few more things I need to share when it comes to the hitting the publishing button, and you may want to look at the FAQs of your fellow authors who’ve used the same platform. Why? Hitting publish isn’t theContinue reading “Publishing Race”
My literary tour, Around the World in 80 Books, has seen the light of day. I cracked open the cover to the introduction and right away there was a reference that I’m adding to my list. David Damrosch said he fell into another world as he read, The Life and Opinions of Tristram Shandy, Gentleman.Continue reading
The Gaming World
After this weekend, I understand why I traded our Xbox for an iPad. My husband recently acquired a game controller for an Xbox one and it was a bad idea. Why? My plans to get more things on my writing list were deterred by a game on our tv and a new controller. It wasContinue reading “The Gaming World”

I need to do a few more rounds of proofs before I launch my next journal. Yes, the big day is finallyContinue reading “New Book Release Coming Soon!”
Ready to Launch?
Another week is passing at the start of the year, and I need to ask if you’re ready to launch? Have you even made a plan to get published this year? I know the idea can feel like you’re buried under the mountain, not at the bottom but making a plan is the best wayContinue reading “Ready to Launch?”
Food For Thought
Last evening was another glimpse of sunlight after 4:00 pm. Again, my eyes drifted up to the orange colored sky in the east and I started to think of ice cream. An orange dreamsicle sat on the tip of my tongue and my mouth watered a little bit in the middle of traffic. Yes, somethingContinue reading “Food For Thought”
Paying It Forward
The week of Christmas is going to be a short blog week because I always wait until later to talk about my family and husband. Traditions, memories, and annoyances make it into my posts because I write about the life of a writer on top of sharing writing prompts. Speaking of the writing life, fittingContinue reading “Paying It Forward”
Little Piggy
This week is full of sniffles and coughs but maybe the Hallmark channel is rubbing off on my husband. He tried to get me out of bed as usual because he’s the morning person and there are some who tried to wake me in the past but they mysteriously disappeared. My family never to wakeContinue reading “Little Piggy”
Things That Go Splat!
The week of Halloween is here! I have my fake flickering orange and black candelabras going next to my creepy black tree and haunted house. My mind is on vampire and werewolf stories. My mini brains in a jar and Frankenstein minions are on the shelf waiting for homes. Did you get in your partiesContinue reading “Things That Go Splat!”
