The all-knowing and all-powerful “they” say it takes 3 weeks to establish a habit. Now that September is thankfully behind me, I’m hoping to prove “them” right. Continue reading
All Too Busy!
I’ll be scarce in Blogland the next few weeks. We have a huge report due at the end of the month (several hundred pages by the time it’s done), and I’m trying to set up a new computer (and learn Windows 10) at the same time. Writing is taking a serious hit. 😦

An Anniversary
This is a brief post. Today marks the sixth anniversary of the day I first sat down at the computer and began writing a novel.
A Pause, A Scramble, And A New Routine
Not my normal posting day, I know, but I wanted to get in an early April update. March is thankfully behind me. If everything had gone to January’s plan, it would’ve been hectic enough with the move. But Life apparently decided that would be too simple. Continue reading
Sideways And Forward With No Backward
February was a mixed month for me. On one hand, I made continued progress on the manuscript. On the other, life is still in the waiting game. And to borrow a third hand, the move to the new house draws even closer.
