Editing Challenge Days 9 – 13

Yeah, so I didn’t write Saturday and Sunday. I thought that I would have energy after cleaning to write for 10 minutes, but I was mistaken. I am sure that had nothing to do with scrubbing the kitchen floor until 3:00 AM Saturday night. But I wrote for a longer amount of time Monday andContinueContinue reading “Editing Challenge Days 9 – 13”

Editing Challenge Days 5 & 6

I did actually do my 10 minutes yesterday, but didn’t get a chance to do a post. And I did them again today (just now!)

It’s what so many introverts/writers struggle with, isn’t it? That fear someone is going to attack you for your beliefs,ContinueContinue reading “Choosing Joy”

As part of my new year’s resolution, I have a new schedule (as anyone who knows me at all would have already guessed).  I get up at 5:00 AM, do a quick 10-minute workout (sometimes Calisthenics and sometimes stretches as instructed by the chiropractor), get dressed, do hair and makeup, grab the lunch my husbandContinueContinue reading “Making Characters Suffer”

A Clover of Hope

I know – it has been forever since I have posted. It’s just been one of those months. I have slowly been working on editing the sappy romance novel, for which I still do not have a title (this is new for me – I normally have pages of titles and not enough books!) andContinueContinue reading “A Clover of Hope”
