April showers bring cloudy days to Minnesota this week. No one in this State who’s been here for more than a year blinks when we get more than one season in a day as we transition. In the past few weeks, there’s been days that started sunny, turned cold, and went from drizzle to snowContinue reading “Beginner’s Luck”

New Release In Waiting Again
Remember how I said I was on a roll last week? I went a little overboard with creating resource journals. Well, I did it again over the weekend. I’ve been working on a recipe journal for food lovers. My favorite Recipes went into waiting on Amazon. Any foodies who followed my tasty finds and crockContinue reading “New Release In Waiting Again”
Hurry Up and Wait After Publishing!
The week is winding down and I can’t wait for Friday. I’ve put myself on a several fast deadlines these past few months to get my Journal and Notebook creating but out of my system. Sometimes, the process of getting a book to the finish line is hurry, rush, edit, and edit again, and thenContinue reading “Hurry Up and Wait After Publishing!”
Finding a Book Cover
Everything is so Minnesota today. We went from 70 to 30s today and the first thing I saw when I walked outside were snowflakes. You read that right, snow flurries on Monday. Yuck! I took my morning walk to get the blood flowing and I started to think about my to-do list. I realized IContinue reading “Finding a Book Cover”
Late Night Publishing! Get Published!
I had a late night dance this weekend and good thing no one saw me do my victory dance! I do it better than any football player getting a Hail Mary touchdown. I’m exhausted but I still have a smile on my face because I hit the publish button. I published 2, not just 1Continue reading “Late Night Publishing! Get Published!”
Ideas for Promoting Your Book
Over the past few months, the designer in me went crazy. Instead of creating one journal, I created a few more. My normal breaks from writing turned into a funnel of resource journals for writers, gardeners, and food lovers. I’m in love with art, design, and writing down your thoughts no matter what your passionContinue reading “Ideas for Promoting Your Book”

Part of the finalization process includes a request forContinue reading “New Book Cover Update”
Returning Home
I love going to discover new places small, between, and big. This weekend was no exception. I made the journey North to a small town during the off season and I didn’t miss the other tourists. There were some places closed and that didn’t make it through the past year, not because of the peopleContinue reading “Returning Home”
On the Road Again
Our road trip to a small town in Northern Minnesota started yesterday and it rained all day. Luckily, the rain came down in mists instead of buckets and I saw the landscape change from shopping malls to lakes and trees. There were only a few travelers driving the same route during off season. As weContinue reading “On the Road Again”
Announcement Day!
This is a big week and I’ve almost tired of looking at final proofs for my new Writing Journal before it’s published. The journal is over 200 pages and many of them are left with writing space for the writing prompts but I still need to go over the details. As I’ve heard from anyContinue reading “Announcement Day!”
Finding Joy in Writing
The excitement continues to grow as my publishing day inches closer! I finished round #1 of final edits, formatting, and style proofing. When I set my goal one year ago, the finish lined wasn’t even in sight. Getting over the first hump of being able to write anything after a few years was more thanContinue reading “Finding Joy in Writing”
Sharing More Resources
About 5 years ago I caught the wave of the Entrepreneur fever rushing through our country and I started listening to other creatives. I came across author, Joanna Penn and her podcast and she became my some day resource. Joanna’s published several books that help other authors, has a daily podcast for writers, and publishedContinue reading “Sharing More Resources”
