That means I'm back up to date with my writing schedule, can focus on putting funny things on Twitter, and can make… Continue reading April Newsletter

February Newsletter
Hello February! If you've been following me for a while, you have probably noticed that my regularly scheduled posts have dropped off. I want to thank you for sticking around through the lack of posts as I dealt with a family matter.

Reading About Writing – Save the Cat
So, to start this off, I'll admit I've been looking for some good "How to write a novel" books for a while and nothing was really sticking. I'm not sure if that's my level of interest or the books themselves or what but none of them really seemed to address my actual needs. Fast forward… Continue reading Reading About Writing – Save the Cat

A good brand for anything usually has some kind of cohesive theme to it. So a person who writes only romance novels will have an… Continue reading From Love Stories to . . . Spy Novels?
Excerpt: Finding her Car
Chapter ONE: Elijah Three blocks later, and only two blocks from home, I noticed a car sitting in a snowbank. It was parked in the darkness between the light cast by the two nearest streetlights, so I had to pull up behind it to get a good look. It looked like whoever owned the car… Continue reading Excerpt: Finding her Car
Guess the Movie #1
This post is exactly what it sounds like! I'm going to ask my toddler to describe a movie and I'm going to transcribe his description as close to how he says it as possible, though I will adjust slightly for spelling and grammar because he's a toddler. Then, you all get to read his description… Continue reading Guess the Movie #1
