Winter is Killing Me

Woke up to a bright day yesterday. And then it started snowing. And as I stared at yet another incoming storm, something in me broke and died. I might have been at work yesterday. I might have gotten some stuff done, but mentally, I was finished. I blanked out and really didn’t come to until […]

Chelsea Learns the Plan

This is a series of short stories, detailing the adventures of Chelsea Childling. You can start with her origin story or pick something from the index.*** The sterile grey of the highway fell away as Chelsea turned towards the back roads. Her directions from her current partner lead her down a dirt road to a field with an […]

And done

Yes, I edited last night. Finally, got together with my editor and read some stories. I am set for next Saturday! That being said, I still have a lot of writing to do. I only have two drafts in the hopper. I thought about doing Camp Nanowrimo this month, and I still might. I have […]

Not checking those boxes

Yesterday, turned out… weird. Despite much snow, we were busy at work. I did get some of my maintenance done, but I do actually have work to do, especially when we have paying customers. And then I got home, and my editor had to reschedule. Considering that I read stories out loud, I get it. […]

I’m Pouting

No, I didn’t finish maintenance yesterday. I accidently deleted a decade’s worth of drafts on my books and novels and I have been pouting ever since. I will likely be finished pouting tonight, but I needed to mourn this. On the one hand, I have the finished versions safe and sound, and all the notes. […]

Maintenance Day

I did not in fact get a lot of editing done because I filled up google drive. Seriously, I have sooo much stuff on there I cannot make edits to anything.So I bought a thumb drive and today, I will be cleaning out google drive. I do have a LOT of stuff of there, like […]

So productive

Yesterday, I got so much done. A had a beta read the Pittsburgh (it’s good), and not only finished the draft I had started and moved to June, but got an entirely new story drafted for May. So I have roughs for April, May, and June. Which feels amazing. Hopefully, I can keep up this […]

Good Progress

I didn’t forget yesterday, I just made the deliberate decision not to blog until I met with my editor. And once I did that, it was pretty late and I was tired. But the good news is, my usually hard to please editor really liked the story. Some plot points we had been arguing, he […]

Whoops

There was no writing yesterday. Nor any physical therapy, which is bad. But I did cross a lot off my list, including fixing Sammy’s butterfly wings. Hopefully, I can get something done today. I have people coming to give an estimate on trimming the freaking grove that is my yard (Seriously, I have twenty trees […]

A Few Days Off

The museum is redoing an exhibit and with my back, I cannot help. I have been given a few days off. While I would love to say I’m going to spend them writing, I am not. I have a few things I have to get to, including my follow up regarding my fall. But I […]
