Okay, I’ve been sadly neglecting this little author blog … and I made the big announcement of my newest project on my author Facebook page. Guess that means you heard it here second, not first. Oops. My author blog is sadly under-utilized. April is Camp NaNoWriMo month, and I’m using it Read more…
It’s Saturday … and for the first time in weeks, I’m NOT in the middle of packing and/or moving. That means I have time to put up a post. Hooray! Hard to believe this is week 91 for My Sexy Saturday. Can’t say I’ve participated every week, but I do Read more…
Saturday again? Now that I don’t have a day job, the days are all running together. Lucky for you—or maybe for me, I got an email reminder to sign up for My Sexy Saturday. This week’s theme? Love on the road … I think. This week, show us the characters Read more…
It’s Saturday, and you know what that means: Time for another sizzling trip down desire lane with the My Sexy Saturday blog hop. The rules are simple: Post 7 paragraphs or 7 sentences or 7 words. The choice is yours. It can be from a WIP or something you already Read more…

The hero in my WIP, Cody, has a tendency to use big words and shrink-speak when he’s upset, angry or flustered. (There’s a reason he has a T-shirt that says “I’m fluent in psychobabble.”) It turns out Cody and I have that in common. Now that I’m writing fiction fairly Read more…
We had a write-in/brainstorming session at Starbucks this afternoon before work, and I lamented the fact that I’ve only written about 600 words since the end of NaNoWriMo. I’ve had days when I want to write, but the simple fact is this: I’m stuck. The (finished) NaNo novel has been Read more…
Uh-oh. I think I’m suffering from a case of the “post-novel depression” my friend Mallory writes about. That’s right. I went to my local Starbucks this morning when the Boyfriend headed off to tennis. I was all psyched to get back to writing. After taking a week off post-NaNo, I Read more…
