It’s March and it probably comes as no surprise that it’s snowing again. I can’t remember the last time there was a winter with not just snow but heavy snowstorms every few days or so. I think lots of people will appreciate spring this year. I know I will. The February classes are history…

Friday Ramblings From An Author-An Amazon First for Me!
February started with cold and snow, and as I write this last Ramblings of the month, looks like it’s going to end that way too. I’m seriously thinking about holding writing retreats someplace warm next winter! Another month almost done and my February To Do folder is almost empty. Second month in a row. Putting…
Friday Ramblings From An Author-Three Online Schools and One Relaunched Blog
Sometimes it’s Friday before I know it. Anyone else feel that way too? Thank you to everyone who signed up to be a Thursday guest blogger. I’ll be posting another sign up for June, July and August posts, sometime during May. It’s great to see that TWL is growing every week. I really appreciate you of all…
Friday Ramblings From An Author-Pet Project
The cold and snow continues but it’s jumpstarted my need to get some serious winter reading done. I just finished reading Allie and Bea by Catherine Ryan Hyde. Yes, that was on a previous reading list and I just got round to reading it. I know, it’s embarrassing to admit how far behind I am….
Friday Ramblings From An Author-Be A Successful Freelancer
We’ve had the Polar Vortex and now this weekend is supposed to feel like spring. If only the spring part would stay around that would be great. I’m sure lots of you were also in the path of that nasty cold weather earlier this week. People always debate whether it’s better to be in a heatwave…
Friday Ramblings From An Author-The Perfect Weather for Writing
Two words I hate to see in the weather forecast are Polar Vortex. It’s cold, no correct that, it’s friggin’ cold and only going to get colder. When the forecasted high has a negative sign in front of you, you know you don’t want to go outside…well, at least I don’t. I always say look for…
Friday Ramblings From An Author-Keep On Publishing
It’s snowing and it’s cold, cold, cold. Even the deer that roam around the area have cozy- downed in the piles of leaves back the woods…that’s when you know it’s bone chilling cold. A big thank you to guest blogger, Beth for those two great posts. I hope it’s helped you with creating your characters. I’m happy…
Friday Ramblings From An Author-Shame Yourself and Get It Done
One thing I did over the break was look at all the work I’d started and never finished. Articles half completed, stories with just a few sentences, a book half written, and some non-fiction books started last year… The list goes on and I hadn’t realized how many unfinished projects I had. I was suddenly…
Friday Ramblings From An Author-2019-The First Ramblings of a New Year
Happy New Year to you. I hope everyone had a wonderful holiday season. So are you ready for a new year of writing? We’ll be back to the normal schedule next week starting with Monday Motivation. Anything you’d especially like to see on TWL in 2019? I’m thinking about Saturday seminars that will focus on one particular…
Friday Ramblings From An Author-2018…that’s a wrap
Welcome winter (or summer…I know many of the TWL followers live in Australia and New Zealand). Another year is slowly becoming history. It’s the end of the work year for me. I’m planning to take a two week break from most of my usual writing activities. There will not be a Monday Motivation or Prompts for the next two weeks, but…
