Sometimes you have to take a break from work and that’s what I did this afternoon. I watched some of the Olympics and then some football (as I call it but I know lots of you think of it as soccer). I’m happy to say the team I support won and now it’s time to get back to…

Friday Ramblings From An Author-Welcome to August
August certainly arrived with some heat. Where I live it’s been hot and humid even at 6 a.m. I think I’ve been in saunas that are a lot cooler. At least today is less muggy and it’s been wonderful to turn off the air conditioning and open all the windows. As I didn’t want…
Friday Ramblings From An Author-Hot Summer Days
Is it scorching hot where you live? It probably is if the weather reports are anything to go by. Where I live it’s hot and humid…never a good combination. I’m just glad I got some outdoor chores done earlier in the week. One good thing about hot muggy weather is you stay inside and as…
Friday Ramblings From An Author-Summer Break
Another workshop finished today and now I have six weeks until the next one begins. Lots of chores are calling my name…lots of writing projects are also calling my name so I won’t be idle. Yesterday I released the first of two new writing books I recently worked on. The first one is about writing…
Friday Ramblings From An Author-Scrabble by Candlelight
Wow, what a week it’s been. Late Tuesday afternoon, a huge storm rolled through town and we lost power for about 16 hours. Luckily there wasn’t any damage like the storm back in 2013 but it isn’t until you’re without electricity that you realize how much you rely it for so much. No computer, no TV, and no lights…
Friday Ramblings From An Author-It’s Summer
It’s officially summer and time to get started on my reading list. There’s something special about being outside reading. Maybe it takes me back to childhood when I loved sitting under the pear tree in the backyard and reading an Agatha Christie mystery. I released my fourth book of the month yesterday. This one is another historical that was a…
Friday Ramblings From An Author-Almost Summer
Summer starts next week and I think it’s the perfect time to look at the goals you set for the year and maybe make a few new ones. There’s too much pressure on you when a new year starts so this is my favorite time to evaluate (and maybe even re-evaluate), what I set out to…
Friday Ramblings From An Author-Another Week, Another Release
So far I’m keeping with my schedule of releasing a book each Thursday in June. I’m determined I’m going to do it even though some days my fingers and hands have a different idea as I hit the letters on the keyboard. It’s sort of like my own mini NaNoWriMo challenge. This week’s release was an…
Friday Ramblings From An Author-Is it June Already?
I find it hard to believe that in a few weeks summer will arrive. I hope everyone had a good holiday weekend, (if it was in fact a holiday where you’re at). I sat down and put my summer reading list together and as always, today I saw a few more books I’d like…
Friday Ramblings From An Author-Long Weekend
May is winding down and it’s been a busy month. So busy that it seems like it’s flown by but I did get a few things checked off my to do list. I’m teaching three workshops next month. The first one starts on Wednesday and is the My Story’s Been Rejected, Now What? boot camp. The…
