Rollerdanceskating Karaokeview
OK. The #SaturdayScenes community on Google Plus is planning to do some interviews of its members, and somehow that escalated into me organizing a dance show. Ironically, during the years when I was teaching Scottish Highland Dance, I did that … Continue reading

Why Stories Sit on the Shelf
♥ My TBR (To Be Read) shelf overfloweth. That’s nothing usual for any writer or bibliophile. But my TBF (To Be Finished) shelf overfloweth as well. So why do stories sit on the shelf? Why would a writer put them … Continue reading
ROW80: Final Check-In for 2014 Round One
~sigh~ Not the best round for me. Mainly because I also teach computers in the spring, and although I love teaching and have done it for years, it feels more and more like a chore lately. I’d rather be concentrating … Continue reading

When the Wedding Isn’t the Climax
Skip down to ROW80 with me… I just wrote a wedding scene. The story is romance…SciFi Polyamorous Romance, to be specific. But this doesn’t mean I’m almost done with this WIP; this story still has a ways to go. I … Continue reading

Money!
Tuesday was a major milestone in my writing career. I received monetary payment for a story I wrote! Although I have several stories published in anthologies and a magazine, all the ones out there so far have been freebies. I’m … Continue reading

Late Update
I admit I’m a bit lost. But things are good. In fact, the reason I’m a bit lost is because things are good! I’m well over 80k in my WIP. I’m expecting it will top 100k, and if it’s a … Continue reading

Na-No a Go-Go
Here’s the quick and dirty update! The graph says it all… I learned something this week. Or, rather, something I already knew was confirmed. Posting a story on the blog and putting up a generic call for beta readers and … Continue reading
