Getting Out of My Own Way—Sabotaging Your Creativity #writing #creating
A couple weeks back as I began to really work on my newest book project, I found myself struggling to get the story on the page. It’s not a new challenge, hell, it’s not even unexpected. Every time I start a new book, I spend the first few weeks stumbling around, bouncing off of weak […]
Continue readingMe, My Husband, and His Invisible Friends—A Writer’s Domestic Life with a Gamer #writerlife #gaming #humor
Today’s post has nothing to do with writing. Correction–it flutters around the edges of my writing life, but the star of this post is my Knight in Slightly Muddy Armor and his Invisible Gang of Game Domination. As I write this, I have my headphones on and music pouring in, but it still does nothing […]

As I am wont to do each new year, I sat down to figure out just what will I be doing during this year of 2016. Granted, I’ve discussed (ad nauseam) my book plans–work on new project through April and probably into May, break for a month, start on the fifth Kyn novel, then fourth […]

*brushing off the cracker crumbs and washing out the wine glass* Now that I’ve finished with my pity party, time to get to work. As I wait for official release dates from my publisher for the PSY-IV Team’s TOUCHED BY FATE and MARKED BY OBSESSION, I prepare to embark upon a new project and take […]

When I sat down to write my first story, I thought I was ready. I had created an interesting world, complex characters, and had a plot. What more could a writer ask for? Answer: A crap ton more prep work and advice. Here’s what I’ve learned through the creation process of two series: World building […]

Damn, would you look at that? 2016 is here and 2015 is beating feet down the road in search of a beach and an umbrella drink. Kind of wish I was tagging along. I’m not ready for this new year, not by a long shot. Don’t get me wrong, I have a list (a loooonnnnggg […]

In need of a little positivity today, so I’m going to share links to stories which reveal that the flame of hope has not been snuffed out by the looming cloud of senseless negativity that can’t seem to catch a clue and go home. For the musically inclined, this story is about sharing our art […]

For those who are interested, I did survive November. Not just the adjustment to a new job-that-pays-the-bills, but the whole stuffed-bird-family-invasion aspect and, because I didn’t have enough stress, the carnage of NANO. Which reminds me, huge congrats to all who participated and managed to carve out words this past month. Whether you won or […]

Stop waving that diaper around, I’m not expecting one of those blessings. Sheesh, I’m still trying to figure out how to finish the last two projects I was sent. I’m talking about those blessing we don’t realize are blessings until after the fact. After a difficult challenging year, I decided to take a moment to […]
