No, not with a novel. Or even with another quilt. I just finished reading all the short stories for the Fiction River anthology workshop this year! I was pretty focused and disciplined, reading 4 short stories a day and making comments on every single story. I’ve been doing this for months, now. I believe the […]
No, not a novel this time. The latest quilt! It’s a scrap quilt, so 95% of the material in it was left over from other projects. It was also a pain in the ass to finish. Each one of those squares had to be cut individually. Then I stitched light and a dark squares together.
It’s been a rough start to the year, quite frankly. It started actually on Christmas day, when I stepped on a nail and skewered myself good. Which was bad. But what was worse was getting a tetanus shot. I reacted weirdly to it, as I always do. So that was a week that was bad. (Shooting pains
*le sigh* I need to eat leafy greens on a daily basis. No, really. This month that fact really hit home. Again. If I eat leafy greens on a regular basis, I get significantly fewer migraines. Period. I actually already knew this. But I keep sliding. Stopping. Plus, there were the holidays. It isn’t as

Since I just changed themes on my WordPress site, I want to see if the sharing to Facebook will actually work. Also, have a coffee dragon!
Testing a new plugin to automatically post from WordPress to Facebook. Do not be alarmed if this post disappears. Then reappears, only to disappear again. And yes, that’s a picture of the new quilt I’m working on.
I’m kind of in shock. I finished the current novel today! I had thought I had a few more chapters to write, but no, this was the last chapter. I’m really, really pleased with how this novel turned out, though. This is the second novel of a dark fantasy trilogy. I finished the first novel,
