New week, new worries

My husband is out of town for next few days. So I am or may not get more writing done. On the one hand, it’s just me and the kids. On the other hand, they have to start practicing going to bed early and getting up and ready to start their days (no more lounging […]

Still working

Never did get that fight scene done yesterday. And it’s not even the fight itself, it’s the lead up to the fight. I’m reworking the some of the emotions and dialogue going in. Little things, but they make for a better story. I had a bad bout of insomnia last night. So I have no […]

Buckle down

Yesterday was one of those days where I found myself unable to do much of anything. I flitted from project to project never really finishing most of them.

Short stories and fight scenes

Faking it until I make it

Bring on the funny

I’m trying to anyway. It’s really cold this morning and just getting out of bed took so much energy. I’m pounding coffee though, and making outlines. Yes, I am actually making an outline, and doing research. This short is a parody of popular TV show. I need to get it right. While I like Supernatural […]
