What’s Your New Year’s Resolution for Writing in 2015?

Good morning. It's 6:35 AM and I should be writing. My main character, though, is in the middle of a somewhat dicey scene during which she not only sees an unpleasant side of her love interest but she must also confront him about it. And I don't do confrontation well. So I thought I'd leave […]

Wednesday Within: The Tension of Reading

Here's the latest collection of prompts from my Tumblr blog. Enjoy! And write! #124 Music. It touches us, thrills us, saddens or gladdens us. For some, it is a pathway to a spiritual connection. To others, a way to get lost in the moment. What does it mean to your main character? What kind of […]

Wednesday Within: This Will Save Me

I am a woman of great passions. Some of them, like writing and reading, have lasted a lifetime. Others, like gardening or knitting, wax and wane. And still others (Jazzercise, anyone?) have their brief moment in the sun with me and then I lose interest. And then there are the things I find that I'm […]

Wednesday Within: Integrity

Here's a little secret about me: if I announce I'm going to do something, at some point I am sure to rebel against myself and not do it. Does anybody else have that? What is that about? You would think at this advanced age, I'd have figured it out and stopped doing it. So all […]

My Writing Life

So, as we all know, it is Nanowrimo, with many of us smack in the middle of scratching out 50,000 words this month. (I'm not doing it because I'm rewriting my novel but I'm cheering on everyone else who is writing!) The lovely people at Webeducator asked me a few questions about writing–in celebration of […]

Wednesday Again

It's Wednesday again, in case you hadn't noticed. And this is the day I devote to a personal post not related to writing. Or the day I try to devote to a post not related to writing. It seems like somehow or another everything links back to writing for me. But anyway…. At this very […]
