That didn’t go according to plan. Day before yesterday, woke up feeling kind of rough. Got worse as the day went on, not better, as I’d hoped. Developed as close to a migraine as I get these days. Had to cancel dinner with a friend, couldn’t even get through my reading. Ugh. Woke up yesterday […]

YAY! YAY! YAY! YAY! The last book of the Kickass Cassie Novels is now available! YAY! I love Cassie. I’ve loved writing her and Hunter and the others who inhabit her universe. But, it was time to finish the series. This book took a lot longer to write then I wanted it to take. I

I was supposed to spend yesterday in Portland. Take the train down, hang out with a friend, then take the train back. Got up at o’dark 30, drove into the city, got my seat assignment for the train, yada. Though the automated system announced that the train was ready to board, we kept waiting. Conductors

I was gone most of yesterday afternoon, between going to the library, the gym, and the grocery store.   When I got home, I discovered that my cat had hacked up a hairball on the quilt hanging off the edge of my bed in the tiny house.   Imagine my surprise when I took the

I have a bunch of things that I need to focus on, that take mindshare, every day. Writing, of course. Since I am more focused on reaching a certain word count goal every day/week, it takes up more focus than it used to. Publishing. And by that I mean all the parts of the business.

I’m spending this week in Seattle, so I have internet access 24/7 and I can do a couple of big projects. I’m staying at a cute AirBnB room on Capitol Hill, my old neighborhood. When I first moved to Seattle, I had a condo only a few blocks from here. It was an old building,

This weekend, I learned something interesting.   I always take Sundays off from the writing. We generally go out to eat on Sunday morning, and by the time I get back, it would take me so long to get back into a writing frame of mind it isn’t worth it. So I putter on Sunday

Last week we bought a Christmas tree, and finally, after our adventures with the tree stand, we got around to decorating it. So lots of pictures! We got a U-Cut tree, a little taller than we’d originally planned, but it’s gorgeous. I grew up with a strong tradition of Christmas and decorating the tree. When
