Last night I was snuggled under my blankets and rewatching an old Netflix series and I found my attention totally glued to the tv just like the first time. Have you ever had one of those moments when someone delivers a line of another writer and you stand up applauding? I’m envious of such aContinue reading “Movie Night!”

Winter Traditions
The winds howled last night and I felt my windows shudder. I finally had to turn up the heat so that I didn’t have to look like a lump of blankets on my sofa. You would have laughed if you saw the blanket draped over my head while I waited for the temperature to climb.Continue reading “Winter Traditions”
Dog Sledding Days
The four letter word fell all day in Minnesota today, and our I witnessed our downtown streets turn into a scene from Tokyo Drift. This new episode had me stop in the skyways of downtown as I watched trucks and cars slide from one side of the street to the other as they turned theContinue reading “Dog Sledding Days”
Zombie Wednesday
I’m not in the genre of writing Apocolyptic novels but I feel another episode creeping in again. In Minnesota, the cold weather and storms means filling up your gas tank and getting errands done before the snow piles up and traffic crawls. It also means getting grocery shopping done early so that you don’t endContinue reading “Zombie Wednesday”
Growing Pains
I know a few people who had the Monday’s around me and I tried not to let it become too contagious but some people have trouble turning the corner into a new year. Everyone deals with change differently. Instead of staring at 2022 with and feeling overwhelmed, I started to ask other people what theyContinue reading “Growing Pains”
Author to Author
The first Monday of 2022 is here and I started out the first day of the month with a touch base meeting with one of the Coauthors to the book I’m editing. I shared my experience of previous book edits and the timeline never changes be I’ve published my own or someone else’s novel. TheContinue reading “Author to Author”
Writing in 2022!
The clock struck midnight and I was actually up this time watching the ball drop on TV as the New Year rang in. There was a client click of our fake champagne (the real stuff gives me a headache), and a kiss on the sofa. There were no parties or get together with everything goingContinue reading “Writing in 2022!”
Mini Vacation Time
I hope everyone had some time to create some Christmas memories this year. I said create because sometimes we need to make our own when life decides to give us ones we’d rather not have. There’s still time to have a better 2021 and ring in the New Year right. You may see a fewContinue reading “Mini Vacation Time”
Merry Christmas!
One of my favorite times of year is finally here and I’m writing from mom and dad’s kitchen table this morning. The Minnesota crock pots are all lined up and ready for wild rice soup and appetizers. My family has the tradition of making tons of appetizers of all kinds instead of a big meal.Continue reading “Merry Christmas!”
Christmas Dinner Parties
Last night was our first mini get-together with old work friends to exchange stories of co-workers of Christmas past. Our table was a little different this year because the past few we weren’t able to get together for everyone’s health and safety. This year was our first time seeing each other after many of usContinue reading “Christmas Dinner Parties”
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”
Fantasy Writing Week
The day ended and I had to take a deep breathe. Answering the incoming emails and catching up on tasks made me do a double take in late afternoon. The last time I looked at the clock it was lunchtime and then the end of the day was there in a the blink of anContinue reading “Fantasy Writing Week”
