Still no power today. Electric company has come out, but no results yet. Camping out at my parents and writing. At least I'm making progress on my manuscript if nothing else is getting done today. Because of these circumstances I'll keep this post short and sweet. I hope your Saturday is going better than mine.

Play Date Saturday
Today's post is coming live from the Cabin at the Crossing location where my writing group is having their annual retreat. So the play date is this. Getting together with 8 writers and writing. Imagine the quietness and the drumming of laptop keypads as ten x eight fingers are working frantically as the words flow… Continue reading Play Date Saturday

It's Black Friday... run and hide I admit I went shopping today. Left home around 11 a.m. and was back by 2:30 p.m. It was a little crowded at the mall, but we got what we went to get and came home unscathed. I still have more shopping to do, but one gift is purchased.… Continue reading Random Thoughts Friday

I hurried downstairs to check my laptop and my sales figures since I'm running a free download for one of my books. The figures looked promising and my rankings at… Continue reading Play Date Saturday

I also attended many informative workshops today. Learned about corsets, codpieces and kilts for dressing and undressing period characters correctly. Yesterday I learned about Regency clothing. I also… Continue reading Play Date Saturday
My play date today consisted of writing. I needed to spend time with my computer and an open work in progress. I chose my historical since I haven't been getting anywhere with the contemporary romantic comedy. I thought this might rejuvenate the muse. I also listened to Mozart Concertos as I wrote to feel in… Continue reading
Rainy Rainy Labor Day
The rain set in early evening yesterday and has continued off and on since then. We've had shower after shower today and it isn't even noon yet. A lovely day to sleep in if you can, but a writer must not lay in bed when there are pages waiting to be written. That is my… Continue reading Rainy Rainy Labor Day

Today was special. I was invited to another author's home for dinner with several of the Smoky Mountain Romance Writers. It was so nice to kick back by the pool, have dinner, and lively conversation. The weather was nice too so that made it even more enjoyable. I hope we will get to do more of… Continue reading Play Date Saturday
