I almost played hooky today and took my fingers off the keyboard today but there’s nothing wrong with a Cinderella post. The clock hasn’t struck midnight and maybe there’s a little magic left before my horses turn back into mice. My favorite is still the fat mouse. While I wait for my ride to turnContinue reading “Pumpkin Time”

More Games
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”

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.

Friday Scramble

Going 3 Dimensional
My evening didn’t go quite as planned because I got a call from a business partner that needed some quick changes to their website. I’m all for helping someone else build up their business so I changed priorities so that they could add new features to their website. This could impact a potential speaking jobContinue reading “Going 3 Dimensional”
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”
The Fat Fly
My mouth was watering after I returned from a quick walk, I could smell my warm breakfast sandwich through the wrapper. I carefully unfolded the crinkling paper, my mouth opened and to my horror a big black fly flew out. My fingers dropped the hot potatoed sandwich in horror. Aren’t watching monsters on “Stranger Things”Continue reading “The Fat Fly”

Show week is here again as we get ready for our market weekend at the Stillwater Minnesota Flea Market this weekend and I’m trying to prepare myself for the hot temperatures.
