Hello 2016!

Hello 2016! The holiday madness is done. The manuscript I was beta-reading for another author is now safely back in their hands. It’s time for me to turn my full attention to the second novel in The Veil Series, Veiled Path to Destiny. Like so many, I’m...

Color my world

  I love this image. How sad that after so long I have no idea who made it. I’ve always been a bit of a color person. I have been OCD for as long as I can recall and color coding helps me to make sense of the chaos. As it happens, I was very lucky to get to...

Reflections and things to come …

Looking back over my life in 2015, it wasn’t a bad year. To be honest, it was probably a really good year. I settled into a new job that I honestly like. I’m sure most of you will understand how important it is to work at a job that you like doing AND enjoy the people...

Begin again

A few years back I started a series on writing in alphabetical order. I am resurrecting those posts, re-sharing them, and will finish our alphabet in time, I hope. Things are immensely difficult for me personally right now and in honesty, I need to not be pushing for...

Drink coffee, Write words, Repeat

I am bush-whapped. The holidays snuck up fast, beat me senseless, and made a break for fairer skies. Dirtballs. I did remember to pause and experience the moments. I did remember to hug my nephews a little tighter since I don’t see them very often. I did eat way...

Bring on the New Year …

Yule passed me by without a flutter, Christmas is finally over. It hasn’t been the best holiday for me, but I managed to survive yet again. While I didn’t have the Norman Rockwell Christmas, I did take time to acknowledge that I am blessed. I have a roof over my head,...

A Moment to Relax

The busynes of the holidays is over for the most part.  It’s time to take a moment and relax.  It’s time to enjoy family and friends.  This is what  the build up has been for,  so don’t waste the opportunity to share the time with loved ones. Whether...
