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”
Happy Easter!
This Easter my husband and I entered into the land of cheese curds and Spotted Cow beer. Yes, we’re in Wisconsin. Sometimes, you’re so used to city life that you forget there’s more to your surroundings than rush hour, emergency sirens, and buildings. Stepping out of our car last night the first sound to hitContinue reading “Happy Easter!”

Hoarding Slush Piles
Over the weekend, I TikToked about Spring cleaning and taking a few items to Goodwill on a rainy Saturday afternoon. Last night, I watched an episode of Hoarders and it scared me. I immediately went and cleaned another small area in our creative room after watching a painful episode of someone who needed help butContinue reading “Hoarding Slush Piles”

Reset Time
We sprang forward a few weeks ago and all my clocks changed over except my alarm clock. You know when you have that feeling that everything is a little off? I heard clock ticking like a drum on the wall and always felt a few steps off from where I was supposed to be standing. Continue reading “Reset Time”
Publishing Announcement
We’re coming to the end of the month and I can’t keep one of my projects quiet. Over the past year, my journey started by creating prompts because I stopped writing. I published 5 novels in the past and then my unfinished novels sat in the corner but life happened. I started making excuses andContinue reading “Publishing Announcement”
Writing Update
Changing plans over the weekend means that it’s time to get back to the most important part of being an author, and that’s sitting my butt down and writing this week. My goal this week is to add to my page count for one of my fantasy novels. In previous weeks, I took a deeperContinue reading “Writing Update”
Happy St. Patrick’s Day!
Today, we are all Seanchai or old story tellers of Ireland as we celebrate March 17th together! Being a story teller of old lore means passing on family traditions and customs. Somewhere in my mom’s family lineage there a deed ownership of a castle, sold before the potato famine and a voyage to the UnitedContinue reading “Happy St. Patrick’s Day!”
Female Writers
This week is supposed to be full of green and four leaf clovers but the storm that dropped feet of snow in Colorado paid us a visit a day later in Minnesota. Temperatures dropped again and the snow fell late into the night. How am I supposed to find my pot of gold with snowContinue reading “Female Writers”
Character Development
Happy Friday! I hope you were a good student and did your homework yesterday. I spent hours working on my character profiles and flushing out their back stories. More importantly, I spent time on asking why questions. This exercise was inspired by Shaelin at Reedsy or https://youtu.be/PqKxLx3As28. If you didn’t have time, or become aContinue reading “Character Development”
