Prep Work
Shiny! OK, new stuff is fun, but it’s not always a good thing. When you’re distracted by something new and shiny while you’re supposed to be working on something else, that’s bad. This is something we try to instill in … Continue reading
Fight the Good Fight
One of the best things about A Round of Words in 80 Days is that it lets me see when a problem is no longer a temporary thing, but a battle royale. That’s where I’m at now. I’ve been at … Continue reading
The Turning Point
I wish I had a crystal ball. I wish we could see what the future holds, and plan accordingly. It has been a weird summer, after moving to Colorado Springs in March. Monday hubby started a new job, and it … Continue reading

NaNo a NoGo
I love NaNoWriMo! For me, busting out as many words as possible in a short time is a very effective strategy for writing. From 2010-2014, I won four out of five times, writing more than fifty thousand words each November. … Continue reading

Clicking My Heels Three Times
An offer was made on the house. The offer was accepted. Closing is in January. We found out last Spring that my parents (who own the house we live in) had decided to put the house on the market. We … Continue reading
