Happy Halloween!
To Nano, or Not to Nano
It's that time of year again, when all my writer friends are having crazy fun getting started with NaNoWriMo (National Novel Writing Month). I always feel a pull to join them, and this year is no different. It's also the same in that I'm in the middle of a big piece that I really need... Continue Reading →
Creative Endeavors
I've heard people say, "Writing begets writing" (if you know the origin of this excellent quote, please let me know in the comments!). I find this to be absolutely true. For me, writing doesn't just lead to more writing. It leads to more creativity in general. Traveling along the writer's path, I've learned so many... Continue Reading →
2,000 Words
I'm 2,000 words away from typing "The End" on the sixth Department of Homeworld Security novella! I'm pretty sure that's going to happen today. There are several reasons this is very special. For one, this is the last Department of Homeworld Security novella that I have on my writing schedule. That doesn't mean it's the... Continue Reading →

I'm not sure what was behind me thinking, "Gee, I wonder if I can write an 80,000 word novel while hosting family holidays and dealing with the busiest time of year... Continue Reading →
Focusing on Happiness—Week Twelve
What I'm happy about this week: rest. Last year around this time, I made a holiday themed banner for my website. I put my first two published titles in a sleigh being pulled by cute spaceships. And of course, the dragon Bookwyrm was dressed in her festive Santa hat ❤ If I tried to update... Continue Reading →
Still Celebrating…With Food!
It's been just over a week since Lingering Touch came out. There's been so much activity surrounding it! I added a section to the Lingering Touch page on my web site just to track all the guest blog posts, features, and interviews! ❤ I'm thrilled to have been interviewed on the USA Today Happy Ever...

The Strong Sun Moon
Today is triply blessed for me. It's the Summer Solstice and the full moon for June—the Strong Sun Moon. And also, today is the release day for my latest scifi novella (which is not at all a coincidence 😉 ). It's a good time to take stock of the last year, and after reading my... Continue Reading →
