I've made more progress this week on The Undying Ones. I'm not back at 50,000 yet, but I've FINALLY reached the point of the story where the real fun begins. Not to say that the book isn't fun from the get go - it is - but the next couple of chapters are ones that … Continue reading Shadow Man…

The Mysterious Door…
The Boyo has an ear infection (apparently it is still possible to get them even if you have tubes in your ears) so life is a little chaotic right now while we deal with that. Normally his mood gets better once he get started on antibiotics, but this time around it's like his attitude is … Continue reading The Mysterious Door…
50,000
The Undying ones reached 50,000 words last night. 50,000 words. That means it's already novel length and it's not even half way done yet. It's amazing to me how this has grown from a short story that I started for a creative writing class over ten years ago. Now it's a full length novel that … Continue reading 50,000
A New Start…
Today is Ash Wednesday - which is the start of Lent and 46 days of fasting. While my husband and I are not Catholic (He's a member of the Four Square denomination of Christianity, while I come from a Southern Baptist background... a very reserved Southern Baptist background) but we decided to use March 1st as … Continue reading A New Start…
A Difficult Conversation…
I meant to post last week, but my computer had other ideas. Thankfully it's working now, and I've bought a new battery and some more memory in the hopes that that will help. I would get a new processor as well, but laptop processors really can't be replaced (sometimes, but not always), and honestly they're … Continue reading A Difficult Conversation…
Just a Bump in the Road…
I wrote so much over the holidays that my carpal tunnel started to act up. It's been over seven years since it's bugged me. I honestly thought it would act up while I was in school, but I guess clicking through power point pages isn't the same thing as typing. Where and how I sit when … Continue reading Just a Bump in the Road…
Something Different…
I hope everyone had a good Christmas weekend. We spent Christmas Eve with my side of the family, then we had friends over for a visit. Hubby tackled building a cardboard pirate ship... which was tougher than either of us expected. We should've known it was bad news when the instructions included a link to … Continue reading Something Different…
A Fanfic Christmas…
We're hosting Hubby's family for Christmas, so we've spent the past few days cleaning and decorating in preparation. I've also been baking cookies - mostly macarons - for Christmas eve with my family. In between cleaning and baking, I'm usually tinkering around the laptop. I was bit by the writing bug big time over the … Continue reading A Fanfic Christmas…
Catching Up…
I apologize for not being able to comment on anyone's posts last week, and not replying on comments for so long. After getting our internet back up and running, I spent most of the weekend rushing around to finish assignments for my last class of the semester. Unfortunately, I didn't do as well as I wanted … Continue reading Catching Up…
Houston, We Have a Problem…
Well, we had a problem... The Friday after Thanksgiving, I did a factory reset on my computer in order to fix it. As soon as it was done I went about trying to reinstall Windows 10 only to realize that our internet was too slow to handle the download. Hubby and I thought maybe it was … Continue reading Houston, We Have a Problem…
