Celebrate the Small Things

This is my first post for Celebrate the Small Things, a new blog hop I just joined wherein we post what we’ve accomplished this week and share the positive energy. I joined this wonderful group! Seriously, it’s helping me to put a positive spin on the week. I can feel it working already! I went […]

IWSG: Writing Is

I decided to be a little lyrical with this one. Sorry I’m posting it late, but with work, moving and a bout of poison ivy I’ve been going a little crazy lately.. Anyway, here’s my post. …… Writing is hard, I say in passing, as if talking about something not that important to me, really. […]

Friday Fictioneers: Sometimes

PHOTO PROMPT © Stephen Baum get the InLinkz code I’ve been away from Friday Fictioneers for a while. Life has been crazy. Just finished up my first week at new job. (I survived!) And have a closing for my new house scheduled for next week. So I’m finally starting to feel like, okay, my life […]

IWSG: They Liked It! Oh no! Now what?

Here I am for my monthly post for the Insecure Writer’s Support Group, where once a month, on the first Wednesday, we get together and share our angst about writing. It’s a chance to share grievances, and successes. This month, I’m in the middle of finally buying a house (closing date is July 17th but […]

IWSG: What a Tangled Web

I’m not really sure what to write here. I missed last month due to an unexpected (feline) death in the family – and due to finding out I need to find a new place to live (still working on that), all of which caused me to completely forget IWSG. I’m now in this kind of […]

MFTS: The Last Trumpet(?)

My second entry for Monday’s Finish the Story – sorry so long between entries but life and blogging and then life again has been a tad crazy. **** The crew of the Angel Flame received orders to head out. Now, at last, was the moment when God would come to deliver them all. The world […]

RIP D.J.

Okay this is me being incredibly silly but … our 2 year old black and white cat, D.J. aka Diane Junior was put to sleep on Monday after a months-long battle with … the vets still aren’t sure what. And I am sad. But the days are gorgeous and spring is giving way to summer […]

I made it!

This will be a quick note, to say that – yes, I made it through doing two crazy things this month: Yes, I actually went 10,000 words over my personal goal, finishing with 80,000+ words – and I’m still writing. Also, I mostly finished edits on Summer Fire. Okay, I fell pretty far behind on […]

Z is for Zero Sum Game

My last post for the A-Z Challenge! It’s been real. 🙂 Eventually, I am going to have to get caught up on reading all the other posts. And sincere apologies for that. I’ve been struggling, especially toward the end, to try to be able to read – and really read and not just sort of […]

You

My very last cross-post for Friday Fictioneers and A-Z Challenge. I’m feeling a little mixed-feeling-ish. This photo reminded me a little of Baltimore, MD, where I was visiting last Friday. The city is in my thoughts and prayers. You The time has come for us to part ways, but that’s okay. Wind tousles my hair, […]
