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 […]
What a gorgeous day. 1/11/11 and the snow flakes continue to fall. Large, fluffy, white flakes fluttering outside my office windows. It’s very peaceful. The small amount of sun – brave enough to show up here and there – spotlights the gleaming blanketed yards, making me almost believe it’s not that cold. I’m cozy in […]
The snow melted and the sun shines strong. It is 74 degrees here in St. Loius – unbelievable for mid-February, but I love it. Could this be a sign that winter is behind us? I can hope, can’t I? I’m close to finishing my revisions for Mystical Connections, then work continues on Passion’s Promise. Seven chapters […]
Snow last week and flowers blooming this week. I’m stepping out for a long walk because winter has decided to show his face again tomorrow. It’s a sunny in the mid-seventies day, but it’s not going to last. Temperatures drop over night. Back into the thirties, ugh. I’m so ready for the warm weather to […]
I just got back from the NEC conference in Salem, MA. Let your imagination take flight is their theme, which perfectly matched the boost I needed in my writing. I guess I was feeling a bit stale, and the wonderful workshops helped pop me back into the passionate state I’m used to being in while creating my stories. […]
My revisions on Mystical Connections are almost finished, or so I thought. Romance writer, Jenna Nichols, and hard-nosed journalist, Aidan Scott have other ideas in mind. They’ve both decided we need more conflict and drama. So, they morphed at least four new scenes to help strengthen the story line, and I must admit, they are incredible […]
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 […]
