No guest blogger today. Instead, I thought I’d share with you my plans for This Writer’s Life in 2021. I have some changes in the works. First one will be switching over from WordPress.com to WordPress.org. I’ll be doing that over the holiday break the end of December. Hopefully, it will go smoothly. I have…

Friday Ramblings From An Author-Three Paperbacks Published
I know, I know, I was supposed to be recording my new classes, but there was construction noise in the neighborhood so I decided to switch projects. I got three paperbacks ready and also published. Two are for my Kalispell Shifter series. I’m combining three books into one paperback. The other was for a daily…
Friday Ramblings From An Author-Solar Oven Owner
It’s the last Friday of the month. I’m sure April just began. I don’t know if it’s all the upheaval that’s going on in all our lives right now or what, but did April just fly by? It means it’s time to start promoting next month’s classes…two boot camps in fact, one is Plotting…
It’s About Time
I’ve never had so much time on my hands. Have you been hearing this too? As a coach, I’m hired and paid to motivate writers to write, to get their book finished, and sometimes I hand out tough love. Here’s my tough love talk if you’re one of the many people who always complain…
Monday Motivation-Writing Leads To Happiness
I saw this quote the other day which reminds me that to be happy we all need to do something that’s in our heart. For most of us, that’s our writing (our method of life), whether it be fiction, non-fiction or even poetry. This week be sure to do something that puts a smile on…

Monday Motivation-Today, Not Someday
I overheard this last week and it stuck in my mind. I thought I’d make it into a motivational quote graphic to share with you. I’ve put it on this Post It note to remind you how important it is to follow your heart, pursue your dreams now and not ‘someday’. Don’t be the person…
Monday Motivation-Does It Matter To You?
This quote reminds me that no matter how hard something is, even if it sometimes seems out of reach, if it’s that thing in life that matters and deep in your heart, you’ll find someway to achieve it. If it’s writing a book or becoming a freelancer that matters to you, you can do it….
Friday Ramblings From An Author-Hello 2020
Seems like forever since I’ve posted anything here. Yes, I know I’m being overly dramatic and it’s only been two weeks. Welcome to the New Year and a very happy 2020 to you. Did you notice the slight tweak in the look of the site? My plan was to use a different theme but then…
NaNoWriMo-The Homestretch
It’s November 14th and if you’re taking this year’s NaNoWriMo challenge, guess what? You’re heading in the homestretch. The end is in sight. YAY! What a minute you say, I started out strong, I’ve been writing every day but I don’t think I can make it until November 30th. HELP! I felt the same…
