It’s late into the night and I’m sitting in front of my keyboard distracted by another season of Game of Thrones. The writers managed to keep me involved enough to to want to know who’s going to survive this fight for power. I want to know if family members wills survive on their own andContinue reading “More Games”

Last of Summer
The last month of summer rolled in with sun and activities all weekend. My weekend started with a few extra hours of sleep in the morning until my husband bounded in to wake me up in time for an outside picnic. Thanks to some smart friends they choose a well shaded area on a hillContinue reading “Last of Summer”
All Seasons
I’m up here in the extremes this week. Minnesota went from upper 90s to low 70s and I had to turn off my air yesterday. The sudden cool off felt like I stepped into fall a month too early and I had goose bumps walking around downtown. How can we go from melted pancakes onContinue reading “All Seasons”
Frankenstein Stories
After my share the other day and longer post, I’m thinking about the direction I need to go for my novels. I know I can write thousands of pages but there’s been several times that I’ve had a never ending story that just felt flat. Then, the inevitable happens and I end up pitching myContinue reading “Frankenstein Stories”
Writing Prompt Share
The evening sun was setting and soft music played in the background as Fran immersed herself into the world of a new book. Tucked away in the small nook of her favorite bookstore, she never noticed the last motion sensor light going off and the front doors locking. She was too busy fighting new beastlyContinue reading “Writing Prompt Share”
A World of Strangers
The days after events should be declared a holiday for all creators. Being out there in a sea of strangers is one way to test what you create, build up your courage even if you don’t have any sales, and most of all give you a goal to achieve. What happens after an event looksContinue reading “A World of Strangers”
Giving Yourself Shape
I’m sitting in front of my keyboard today and it’s hard to sit still this week. I go through times when all I want to do is relax and watch my shows but words are piled up behind me, waiting along with my other pile of to dos. It’s one of those days when takingContinue reading “Giving Yourself Shape”
Small Town Alien
The end of the week is here and I started binging on my next new sci-if series, Stranger Things. I’ve officially entered into a time warp of bad haircuts and brown and orange clothing. Feathered hair should stay in the past. The biggest events always happened in the smallest towns that no one ever heardContinue reading “Small Town Alien”
Minnesota Heat Waves
Heat waves and thunder is the normal rhythm of this summer. Instant sweat appears on our skin one day and thunder is never far behind. My parents used to say that someone is bowling in the sky during the storms and I always picture the lightening as a strike. I think there’s been a tournamentContinue reading “Minnesota Heat Waves”
Minnesota Summer
Summer in Minnesota means getting into your car and having your makeup begin to melt before the air conditioning didn’t cool off the inside. The humidity up here can make your skin prune without taking a bath. It’s like being in a sauna while your outside trying to enjoy the outdoors. We put up withContinue reading “Minnesota Summer”
Colors of Character
Ideas are floating in my head and I’m trying to find an anchor for one of them to get a few projects completed in the next few weeks. I have the job of creating a simple logo but it’s not so simple. Taking a design and stripping it down to it’s core element has neverContinue reading “Colors of Character”
Work Life
The 4th of July ended with the sunshine instead of the early morning rumbles of thunder. The loud rolling woke me up early and I laid listening to the loud storm throw thunderbolts through the sky. I didn’t bother to look out the window. The whole weekend has been gray and drizzly. The sunset atContinue reading “Work Life”
