A most bizarre block

Not a true writer’s block. That involves having no idea what to write. I know what I want to write, I have more than just a vague idea of this finale goes and a concrete certainty of what the final scene is. But sit me down and there are no words. It’s like pulling teeth. […]

Look publicity!

I’m over at Raine O’Tierney’s Hat Party answering questions today! Also, I am wearing a hat. Take a look see! Not sure I’ll get done today. I’m going to workout with my sister-in-law. My accident in January left me even more sedentary than normal for winter. It’s bad enough I’m writer, but my tendency to hibernate […]

Sunday, Funday

Still recovering from the husband’s birthday. No we didn’t go out and get trashed. He got nailed with a stomach flu. Poor guy is pretty well wrecked, but he did get his Oreo Cheesecake Cupcakes, so he went to bed happy on Friday night. Last night… I should be drafting the final Monsters of Pittsburgh […]

Cancelled freak out

I’ve spent the last two months convincing myself that I had time.  I was a little nervous about the final story for Uncommon Animals, Hunter’s Moon. My faithful betas had read it and loved it, pointing out some missteps, but I knew it wasn’t ready. It needed more eyes. The problem with writing a series […]

That time of the month

Publishing Day! What were you thinking? Anyway, this month’s offering is The Hunt at the Haunt. When a demon gets into the bar, Rita has no choice but to call Mina. Can she fight without her partner there to plan it and can she trust the demon hunters not to turn on her while she […]

Blog Hop: My Writing Process

Apparently, I AM supposed to be a part of this. I got tagged by not just Ripley Nox, but Jesse Pearle and Gina Drayer. Sorry ladies, my head has been directly up my ass the last few weeks. So without further making of excuses, I shall Blog Hop!   1) What am I working on? Lots […]

Short stories and fight scenes

This has been a day for short stories and fight scenes. First off, I am about to have Sam and Dean fight a wendigo. The story I’m publishing on Thursday, The Hunt at the Haunt, is also a short story.  And this morning, I got a great critique on another short, although the fight scene […]

Three days until a new story

The best part of being organized and ahead of schedule. When something trips me up, be it second degree burns from my wrist to shoulder or going toe to toe with my depression, I can keep plowing ahead. How far ahead am I this month? I just have to upload the text Wednesday. The cover […]

Got some writing done

Still not up to my usual daily word count, but I made progress on that parody.  Unfortunately, I had a massive time slip due to my being depressed. It just occurred to me this morning that I publish in four days and I don’t have a blurb for the next story. I’ll get it done […]

One step forward, two steps back

So I had everything ready for my daughter’s birthday yesterday but slept until well after seven today. Oh well. I also got some writing done and some critiquing.  The parody goes slowly. Mostly because my Sam and Dean are nothing like Supernatural Sam and Dean.  But I more or less have a direction to in, […]
