Last Week of the Year


Well, Christmas is behind us. I hope everyone had a good and safe holiday.

I thought I’d get some writing done over the weekend, but ended up not doing much of anything except spending time with friends and family. 🙂

But it’s back to the grindstone this week. I have to finish up one book and write half a chapter on another one. Plus do edits on one. Woot!

I hope you all have a great Monday.

Merry Christmas Eve….


He brought you a flower for the holidays. 😉

Getting ready to head out for last minute presents and food for a family get together tonight. Woot! No writing unless I do some when we get back home late tonight…lol.

I hope you all have a wonderful Christmas Eve…and for those of you who don’t celebrate Christmas, I hope you have an awesome Friday and a marvelous weekend.

Self-employed now



and that could explain why I’m later than usual in posting something on my blog…lol. I decided to sleep in today. 🙂 When C headed out to work, he said he would guess how many words I wrote today between 0-4k. He knows me. I can’t take a day off, not really. I’ll probably write something today, even if I thought that I would take a little vacation…lol.

I’ve been working on a few different stories. One is a YA story about a kid whose best friend shots up their school, and he has to deal with the aftermath. Also, the poor kid has other issues, like being bullied in school, and he self-mutilates (cuts). I think it’s going to be an emotional one, but Charlie (my hero) is really talking to me. He really wants his story told.

I hope you all have a great Wednesday.

Last Day of work…


Today’s going to be a sad, but exciting day. It’s my last day at my day job. I’ve worked with these people for nine years. (the longest I’ve worked any where…lol) Now I’m saying good-bye. It’s bittersweet because I’m leaving to fulfill my life long dream of writing full time, but still I’m going to miss these guys. 🙁

There will be tears shed at some point, I’m sure. 🙂

I don’t have a blurb today. I think I was getting a little worked up about leaving, so I couldn’t concentrate. Maybe tomorrow. 😀

I hope you all have a great Tuesday.

Last Monday….


for working at my day job. 🙂

I got really busy over the weekend, so I didn’t get to write up any blurbs for you all to read. But I’ll try to get at least one of them done tonight for tomorrow. lol. Of course, I hate writing blurbs along with synopsis. But they’re a necessary evil, I guess. 😀

I hope you all had a great weekend.

Friday Hottie


Woo-hoo! It’s Friday. That leaves me only two more days at work. Weekends don’t count since I don’t work them…lol. 🙂

Cynthia’s blurb suggestion sounds fun, so I’m going to try and come up with blurbs for some of the stories I’m working on. I’ll post them to give you all an idea of what’s coming up….though you’ll have to remember most of them won’t be finished and don’t have a release date yet. 😀

I hope you all have a great Friday and a marvelous weekend.

What to say?


Hmm…this not having a blog story to take up Tuesday and Thursday is making it difficult to think of what to say. Not much is happening around here. Just writing.

So C and I decided we weren’t going to get each other anything for Christmas because we buy whatever we want through out the year anyway. I picked up a couple of books for him for his birthday which is next week, but I hadn’t planned on getting him anything else. He tells me today he wants a new Ipod for Christmas. (He broke his last one. Shattered the face and now it only works when plugged into the computer. Pointless for using in a car.) I said fine. Let me know when you want to pick it up. Then he tells me I have to come up with stuff for him to get me since he can’t be the only one opening stuff up on Christmas. (Like he’d wait that long to start using it…lol)

I told everyone else who asked me what I wanted for Christmas to donate to their favorite charity and just get me a card, telling me where they donated. I don’t need anything really, and as for wanting stuff, I can’t think of anything I really want. Then I figured it out. He’s going to get me a new Ipod as well. (The button on mine doesn’t work anymore and it quits at the weirdest times. Just stops playing and goes back to the main screen. Rebooted and restored it a few times. Hasn’t fixed anything.) Though I didn’t want a camera in mine, but C tells me all the new Ipods come with cameras. Oh fine. It’s not like I take millions of pictures anyway, but hey, maybe I’ll start taking them when I’m at conventions…lol.

We have to go out and finish up the Christmas shopping this weekend. Yay! lol Can’t wait for that. I have all my nieces and nephews to buy for. The adults are done.

I hope you all have a great Thursday and that you’re close to being done with your shopping. 🙂

Early Wednesday


I got up early to hang out with my MIL before she went in for surgery. Nothing major or anything like that. So I’m going to be dragging later today. But I’m at work now and hopefully will get the stuff I need to finish up done before the others get in here…lol

Not much happening at the moment. Didn’t do any writing last night. Just vegged in front of the TV for a little while before heading to bed early. 🙂 I’m hoping I can get some more writing done today.

Have a great Wednesday. Stay safe and warm as well.

Another weekend….


Does anyone have big plans for the weekend? I plan on doing as much writing as I can over the next three days. 🙂 Plus I have to be on the computer at 10 tomorrow to grab Kid Rock tickets. He’s coming to my town in January and I really want to see him. Woot!

I’ve been working on two different stories lately. One is a partial for one of my editors. The other is the next chapter in The Haunting of St. Xavier’s-or the bloody nun story-that Carol Lynne and I are writing together…lol. I’m at the love scene, so I have to work on that today. I want that done by tonight.

Well, I hope you all have a great weekend. Be safe and enjoy yourself. 🙂

Busy with new story

Sorry everyone. I will have the next installment up on Wednesday. I’m in the middle of trying to get a proposal done for one of my publishers and I want to get it finished tonight or as close to done as possible tonight. 🙂

But tomorrow night, I plan on working on Geeks, and hopefully get both of this week’s installments done. That way you won’t have to worry about getting a second one on Thursday. 🙂
