My Holiday Wish

The holiday frenzy is in full force. Everyone’s in crunch time mode and operating with the laser like focus of this hawk below. Christmas Eve is less than three days away. Despite the frenetic mannerisms of everyone around, and the possibility, at this late a

An Interview With BookHive’s Jennifer Bowen

Back in late September I shared some good news and a bit of information about BookHive, an online service for authors which allows them to test their manuscript across a broad demographic of “Test Readers.” The experience was so worthwhile, I thought it would be

The Spirit Of Christmas

It’s starting to get a little crazy around here. With only ten days until Christmas Eve, and shopping yet to be done, gifts yet to be wrapped, and a new writing project looming in the background, I’m feeling a little pinched. And this one here,

This past Saturday I attended my book club’s Christmas Luncheon. Earlier during the week, the vice president of the club came up with an idea for the program I thought creative and fun. The idea was for each of us to provide something from our

The Collection

For my entire life, reading has been a constant. Throughout school years, various jobs, one marriage and into the current, having kids, whatever, books have always been part of who I am. One can always be found somewhere nearby, whether on my nightstand, counter top,

While I Wait

One night last week when taking Little Dog out, I did what I always do, I looked up at the sky. Whenever I’m outside, my face is tilted upwards, for no other reason than the fact that I simply like looking towards the heavens. That

It’s That Time Again

Many writers are wrapped up in the frenzy of meeting their 50K word goal for this year’s challenge. You know what I’m talking about. I blogged about it last year too, and my thoughts on NaNoWriMo in this blog post somewhere towards the bottom. The
