Sorry I haven't posted in so long - I have been busy with life: Settling in to my new job, setting up Christmas stuff, recovering from a week and a half with my in-laws . . . all that. 🙂 So, here are my upcoming writing goals. I think it will be significantly harder toContinue reading "Upcoming Goals"

Thanksgiving Coma
So, Thanksgiving totally messed me up. Well, okay - I was already a little messed up. The day before Thanksgiving, I hit blank wall. I stared at the words in front of me - and couldn't think of anything to write. I think part of the problem is that the family is on their wayContinue reading "Thanksgiving Coma"
Quick Word Count Update
I am in Oklahoma now - we are visiting my in-laws for Thanksgiving. They have only 4 children, most of whom are old enough to be on their own, so the house is often quiet, leaving me lots of time to write. And then, of course, I had Thursday and Friday to myself.

Especially a week in which I got what is probably-my-dream-job-and-even-if-it-isn't-is-an-awfully-big-closer-step-to-it. So, is it terrible that I have had no inspiration to do my utmost at my currentContinue reading "Aaand. . . counting"
Not Really an Update But a Random Cheer
Confession: I wrote only 300 words between yesterday and today. Reason: I GOT A NEW JOB! After being in jobs I hated - or at least really disliked - for 3 years, I am finally super excited about this upcoming opportunity! So, yeah. last night just as I was sitting down to get in 2000Continue reading "Not Really an Update But a Random Cheer"
