Samba is my new editor

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 […]

I polished ‘Mystical Connections’, and sent it to my agent. My novella, ‘Identity’ for the Anthology, ‘Sisters of Spirit’ went to the editor prior to my […]

MIA for a reason.

A very dear friend reminded me the other night that I haven’t blogged since August 24th. So true, but there is an excellent reason for the disappearing act. I decided to take a short break and share … I’m doing another edit on Passion’s Race for an agent!! She thinks I’ve created a unique world […]
