A Tale of Two Tinks

Every year around Christmas, my mom, sister, and I go Christmas shopping together. It’s a no-boys-allowed affair (though we did make an exception one year for my awesome nephew, that is another story). It has become one of our many traditions. This year, my daughter-in-law will get to come, but I digress; this is about […]

Quick Update

Current work in progress: I am still working on Stolen Sun. I am on target to have it done by the first of December, let it set for the rest of the month. In January, I’ll start self-edits, and then send it to my editor. Hopefully, I’ll be able to release it sometime in February. […]

Fall = Happy

I know I say it every year, so why break tradition? I’m SOOOO ready for Fall! Not only do I love the cooler weather, but we usually get rain too and I love rain as well. I write better in the fall. I’m not sure why. Maybe it’s because I want to be inside where […]

Why The Long Hiatus?

Where have I been?  The past three years have been difficult. Sadly my little critique group has been through the ringer. As some of you may know, my good friend, Ally Blue, passed away. Unfortunately, it didn’t stop there, we suffered other losses and other heartbreaks. It really has been a rough couple of years. […]

Where Are You Autumn?

So, I have chickens living in my house… How is that for a conversation starter? Fall is my favorite season, but this year I’m really looking forward to it. It’s been one of those summers… Not only would I like to start my fall garden, I want my game room back. The chickens spend the night in […]

Writing & Exercise

Writing & Exercise

With all the talk of New Year’s resolutions, I got to thinking about exercising since that is such a common resolution people have. It is not mine, however; I already work out regularly. I’ve always exercised off and on, but since August of last year, I’ve exercised regularly. In the past, I always had good […]

Oldies but Goodies

Since I was a little girl, I have always loved the tv show Bewitched, starring the beautiful and talent Elizabeth Montgomery. Yes, I’ve only ever seen reruns since the show went out of production when I was only a year old, but nevertheless it’s been a favorite of mine from a very young age. Recently […]

Tea Time

 I cut way back on ice tea (I used to drink ice tea all day every day) and my sugar consumption, which mean no more daily chocolate. I’m infamous in my family for being a chocoholic—so infamous as a teen when my sister complained about me stealing her chocolate that she got from Trick or […]

Superfudge

Nope, not the Judy Blume story which is a great one, by the way.  Actually, I wish I were talking about the book, but hey if you can’t laugh at yourself…   A couple of years ago, I was sitting on my chaise reading a book and my husband was at his computer. Our oldest […]
