My little guy as taken an interest in my WIP. Samba points out that my format is excellent, and he thinks I nailed the emotion in this scene. He purrs to show he likes what’s written so far. Then he sits patiently, waiting for me to continue. His sister, on the other hand, has positioned herself on […]
By posting a picture of Samba on facebook, I learned from a friend that he is an American Bombay. (Thanks Jeff for sharing this info!) I researched the breed and sure enough, it fits Samba 100%. Which then got me thinking about Tango, our cute little Christmas find. I Googled cat breeds and looked at […]
PJ Madison, the heroine in my new ms, is going to be a Veterinarian – so I called my Vet to ask if he’d mind me interviewing him. We had a wonderful time, and I now have about a dozen full pages of information; including course requirements to get into the School of Veterinary Medicine, […]
The creative juices are flowing. It’s so nice to be working on a new project. Editing is fine, but to begin something new, stimulates the brain. Passion’s Promise is taking shape. I’ve completed four chapters & mapped out ten in total. Have an idea where the rest of the story is going, but I’ll take […]
Hard work and persistence pay off and dreams do come true. I’m getting published! On July 11, 2011, I got “the call” from a publishing company. They want to buy an anthology three of my writier friends and I talked about writing. The four of us met with the VP of the publishing company this […]

Wow, what a vacation. We explored the Northwest on motorcycles. Close to 3000 miles, 5 states, 4 national parks, awesome sights, great company, and lots of laughter. We started in Utah, heading into Idaho to visit Craters of the Moon. On day 2, we rode into Oregon to visit Crater Lake, which still had snow […]
I haven’t posted lately, because I’ve been hard at work on my Novella, but this weekend, John & I went to NY to attend Sting’s 60th birthday concert. Imagine walking into the Beacon Theater, getting a glass of champagne, and sitting in the 2nd row, just above the center floor. Sting opened the show with […]
I’m taking a quick break from my WIP, the Anthology, SISTERS OF SPIRIT, to update you on my progress. I hit 18,000 words yesterday, so I’m shy of my goal by only 2000 words. I’m adding new conflict, pacing the action, to keep you turning the pages when it finally lands in your hands! Still […]
Last night, I finished my novella, 19,200 words with a tearful ending. (Tearful for me anyway.) The joy of typing “the end” put a smile on my face, and a copy is now printed and in my husband’s in box. He gets the first read, before the four authors get together to finalize any changes, […]
