Yes, I am rereading and editing. It’s part of the process, and I need to do it. There’s years of these to read as well. It’s also fun, which helps. Hopefully I can finish this weekend, because I also go back to work next week. It’s still our slow time of year, and frankly, the […]

Yesterday turned into a full on reread of Chelsea. Something I’ve actually never done. I tend to reread the more recent stories, or to read a specific story if it’s needed for a current story. Anyway, it’s been enlightening to reread, and I think that’s what I’ll be doing today as well. I truly am […]

I spent most of my writing time yesterday rereading old Chelsea stories. It’s not a bad thing. I do it fairly often while writing. Since my stuff is serialized it’s good to reacquaint myself with old stories and people. Helps keep characters consistent, etc. I also wrote stories that I wanted to read, and that […]

On my to do list for this month off was cleaning up this blog. I didn’t realize how badly I had lapsed this year. But the index is updated and now I’m going to start uploading stories. I actually have a few done, so I have a tiny back log. With my new writing table, […]

I head back to work next week. I did quite a bit. Strangely, not the #1 thing on my list, but not through lack of trying on my part. We might still be able to fix that damn drawer. My kitchen is not ready to be painted, yet. But it’s so much closer, and I […]

I tossed and turned all night and woke up with a blazing headache. So I went back to bed. Anyway, head is not pounding today, but the kids have school off. Not sure if any writing will get done, but I will make the attempt.

I actually finished that Chelsea story yesterday. Maybe 800 words total, but my daily goal is around 400, so I feel very good about it. Now, of course, I have to do the same thing again today. Sit and write, not finish a story. We’ll see. On the house front, I found a cleaner that […]

I did get my tablecloth made yesterday, but I threw out my back doing it. It was a rainy, miserable day, and I didn’t have any dry kindling. So no fire, and I sat in a weird position while hemming. And I hit hyperfocus, so I hand-stitched that hem for two straight hours with no […]

Well, I did it, I found a writing table. I am, in fact, sitting here now. No, no pictures yet. I’ll get there though. It’s a nice, old, maple table. Missing the leaf, so it’s smallish, and round. I have six chairs, but can only fit three. The others will come in handy, I’m sure. […]
