Sunday Sundaes

Peaceful day. Just vegging out and taking it easy. Catching up on shows I DVR'd during the week. I also wrote a few pages, finished a chapter and started on a new one. All in all it was a good day despite my headache.

Random Thoughts Tuesday

How can one person get so many spam comments on a blog in a twenty-four hour period? I'm trying to figure this out. Daily I log in and I have close to 200. Working toward getting my ten pages in today. Not sure I'll make it, but trying my best.

For the past few days I have been reviewing memos and revising them, pulling data together to update the semester calendar of important dates and reading countless emails from graduate students who have questions about financial aid, funding, and when their tuition will be paid. I'm not complaining. This is part of my job and… Continue reading What are you Reading Thursday?

Play Date Saturday

As a writer I had a fabulous day! It started with my writing groups monthly meeting. We had the awesome and talented Anna DeStefano present her 1/2 day workshop on writing, planning, and rewriting. We looked at a character driven story and how to deconstruct a book. A few of us ( a couple of… Continue reading Play Date Saturday

Play Date Saturday

Today I went to a baby shower where the nursery is being done in Monkies. So almost all the little girl clothes had a monkey on it.  And since that is one of the popular designs on the Carter's these days it was easy to buy for. I mean, one of the onesie sets I… Continue reading Play Date Saturday

Play Date Saturday

I hope to get a little, if not a lot, of writing done today. At least that is my plan. However, my favorite store to shop at is having a buy two and get two free sale plus a fashion show (don't recall them ever having that before) and I'd like to go there if… Continue reading Play Date Saturday

Random Thoughts Friday

I was sitting on my front porch in the swing talking to my mom on the phone last night a few minutes before 9 p.m. The sun was low in the sky, it was getting low like as it does before dusk when I saw a skunk go waddling across the drive way. I gasped.… Continue reading Random Thoughts Friday

My mother has finished another Debbie Macomber book. The last few she has purchased has been re-released single title books that have two series books inside. She's enjoying them, but she reads them so fast she is out of books again. She's been raiding my bookshelves lately. I keep telling her we'll go to Edward… Continue reading What are You Reading Thursday

What are You Reading Thursday

Sometimes I think this blog post should be What are You Writing Thursday because if I'm not busy with my day job and raising my son,  that is what I'm normally doing. I'm writing. I don't have much time to read for pleasure anymore, but that doesn't keep me from carrying a book or two… Continue reading What are You Reading Thursday

What are You Reading Thursday?

Reading is a premium. You know how it is when I'm working on a new book. I don't have time for recreational reading. Besides writing I'm also critiquing for my group again. So I'm reading snippets of their current projects (up to 10 pages at a time). Those are looking very interesting. I'm looking forward… Continue reading What are You Reading Thursday?
