So, that foot thing? I’m an idiot. It wasn’t just the box/footrest. I also had my chair too high and apparently, I flex on my toes and lock my feet when I’m concentrating. This causes tendon issues which can be unbelievably painful. So… I had a fun weekend propping up my angry feet whenever I…

Project Done
My rewriting project is finished. I basically let everything go and just dove into that world for the last seven days. I truly enjoy this sort of highly concentrated time. My poor body does not. Eyes, head and of all things, feet, complained. Why feet? When I get excited, I prop them on the edge…
Lovin’ the Process
Thanks for all the emails and tweets about the last snippet. You guys are soooo good for me. 😉 Sorry for so much blog silence this week. I’ve been hard at work on several things–mostly the dystopian young adult. I haven’t started rewrites yet, so I gave Rae permission to take over the brain a…
Truth. Want Some?
So… what is REALLY happening with my work? First let me say that Dame Lili’s post hit home with me yesterday. And something she shared that Stacia Kane said kept replaying in my head all through dinner and shows last night. We had friends over and I introduced my teen reader and her Mom to…

Requests for Cane River & Books Read
So, I’ve been hearing from a few readers about Cane River in the Mammoth Book of Special Ops Romance and so far, it’s nearly all positive. In fact, the only complaint is it’s too short. I wrote that story pretty fast, but really enjoyed the main characters, so writing a full length version is an…
Another Quickie
Thanks for all the kind emails, etc. I’m much better today. Resumed my workout this morning and am spending the day typing in a novella that somehow didn’t get backed up. I’m glad for the hard copy, but this is a bit of a pain. Hopefully, I might have news to share in the not…
Under the Weather
Still hearing crickets here? Sorry ’bout that. All my brain power is going toward my WIPs and watching Veronica Mars episodes because a lot of my time is being taken up by feeling icky. Have a weird headache that has lasted for DAYS which is coming from a combination of unbearable humidity, lack of sleep…
Hear The Crickets?
Sorry for all the blog silence. Nothing happening in the publishing world–crickets are massively loud there. But here, I’m writing. A. Lot. Plus, we have two family gatherings this weekend, so I expect I’ll be busy until Tuesday. You all have a great weekend!
Wine Batch Done!
I bottled the Cabernet today. The entire process of making wine from a kit is complete with pictures. Click on the hobby link above to see. (Oh, my LJ readers can click here. ) Next up is Pomegranate Zinfandel and possibly a Malbec if they have it. I should check. Yum. 😉
