Writing: Monthly Update for December
Did 2018 fly by for anyone else? All year it felt like it was moving way faster than it should have. Querying: Still no change but I'm getting closer. On the first, I finished the last BIG revision of A PRELUDE OF DRAGONS. Next up, line edits. I'll read through the whole manuscript and focus… Continue reading Writing: Monthly Update for December
Writing: Monthly Update for October
Whoops! I fell off the wagon again. Sorry it's so late but it's been a hectic month already. Halloween, our son turned 14 on the first, he had a sleepover on the second to the third, after which we did a crap ton of shopping, and spent yesterday with family! So, with all of that,… Continue reading Writing: Monthly Update for October
If I die, my book did it. Meet my murders.
I love writing but it might be the death of me. After finishing book 2 of my dragon series, I realized it was time to give book 1 a new name. That's where I'm going to start this post so I can easily reference it (SPOILER: I never reference it LOL) FROM STARS, COME DRAGONS… Continue reading If I die, my book did it. Meet my murders.

Short Story: The Witches in the Wood
Shouting closed in behind them, pushing them deeper and deeper into the wood. Tihomir and Vuk dodged trees and bushes. Vaulted fallen logs and large rocks in their path. Running as fast and far away as they could from the villagers intent on killing them. They’d been run out of towns before. So many, they’d… Continue reading Short Story: The Witches in the Wood

It’s the first of the month, or close enough lol Time for another writing update! Querying: From Stars, Come Dragons: One rejection. No other responses yet. It's frustrating, but I have so many other things I'm working on, I've been able to ignore my frustration.

A new brand of writer’s block
Recently, I discovered that I have absolutely no idea how to share my writing journey. My husband says my posts are great. No one else has complained about them, but I'm not happy with them. For example, my monthly updates are copy, paste, replace old info with new info, repeat. I think the structure of… Continue reading A new brand of writer’s block
Under the Amethyst Sky
I stood in my watchtower, under the amethyst sky, waiting for them to appear. A chill spread under my skin. The closer they came, the quicker the ice ran through my veins. Soon, the clouds would bend to my heart. Take the shape only I was meant to give them. But only for a moment,… Continue reading Under the Amethyst Sky
